I am thoroughly enjoying having Boost again, but I'm also definitely falling into a habit of scrolling for too long. It would be nice if Boost could help remind me to be done with Lemmy for the time being. One way would just be a limit in the number of posts that would load when scrolling down in the home view, probably configured via a setting.

I want to use Boost like a feed reader where I can get to the end of the feed and be done. In a feed reader, I can set a limit in the RSS URL. I've been trying to use Feedly with Lemmy feeds. The limits work but the display of graphics is inferior.

Anywhere, yes, it would be great to limit Lemmy feeds to a certain number of items, or a certain time period like posted in the last day.

Combine this with scrolling past marks posts as read and read posts are hidden and then I can finally clear my inbox ... reach the end of the internet.
