   How can I radically deduplicate my timeline, using @apps? #FediHelp

   I enabled "group boosts" (in app and on server), but it's not enough.

   I don't want to see...
   ?...boosts of posts/boosts that were in my timeline
   ?...my own boosts of posts/boosts from my timeline
   ?...re-boosts by the original author to get more engagement
   ?...posts that I've seen with any other account in the app

   I'm reading my timeline and I only ever want to see a post once. Repeating after a few weeks is tolerable.

     Only solution is to hide boosts. Long press the home tab and uncheck "Show boosts".

     It will hide all boosts in your home timeline.

     @apps will that hide all boosts, even for posts that originally weren't on my timeline?

     Ok. The best we can do is to extend the "group reblogs" to the whole timeline (current visible messages).
     That will not cover the case "I already see a similar boost few hours ago".
     Because a such feature would need for each boost a dB call to check if the reference ID already exists in cache (ie: supposed to have already been read, which is impossible to say with the automatic cache feature). So it's not so simple.

     @apps
     But that's not a solution then because it will hide all content from people I don't follow. I only want to hide duplicates... ?
