Wondering if there’s any way to just “dismiss” or mark read everything in the Latest tab once I’ve loaded the threads I actually have any interest in.

There is, but the button’s at the bottom of the list.

ETA: wait… for Latest… I’m not sure if there’s a button at all. There is for New and Unread.

For me, Latest just keeps loading more list every time I go to the bottom of the page.

It might be down there somewhere under 20 years of threads.

I too want to dismiss topics yet the dismiss all ☑ Button when selected turns gray but doesn’t clear or dismiss anything. I want swipe left to delete but swiping l or r is not a thing here. Tedious but I’m going through every topic in my list and muting It yet everyday brings more topics. Do t notify me! I can find topics !
