I've tried Jerboa and Connect. They are ok, but there are features I'd like.

Biggest feature is account backup and transfer. If I switch Lemmy instances, I don't want to have to sub and block all the same channels and people. Heck, maybe keep two accounts always in sync, just in case my initial instance goes down.

Instance blocking. Basically individual defederation by hiding posts and users in the client.

Blocking all subs of a name regardless of instance. If I don't want to see a sub about Foo on one instance, I probably don't want it anywhere.

Keyword blocking. There are public figures I am tired of. Don't need to see any post about them. (Connect actually has this, although I haven't tested it yet).

Really easy channel blocking. Just swipe and it's blocked.

How about hide an article like the old sync did so I don't have to see the same top article all the time? Please, pretty please?

Completely agree with this one. Swipe to hide is how I used Sync and it made using the app so much better.

That was actually reddit funtionality

But you can in fact hide posts in lemmy.

Only read posts. I don't want to necessarily hide read posts. If it's interesting I want to keep coming back to it. Also if it's a junk, offensive, triggering, spammy repost I don't want to have to "read" it to make it go away.

Any other apps that have this functionality?
