This would be great for Reddit load wise because of people who browse like I do. I view everything on a page then hide it all. I do this because I browse in random bits when I'm not busy and I hate seeing 50%+ repeats every time I load up my front page. Currently I just scroll back to the first post and then hold H which generates 25 requests.
If this ever gets implemented, please don't limit it to NER. I don't use NER but would love to have a 'hide all' button.
@aperson For non-NER how about an option to change the "next page" button to "hide all and view next page", and/or a button next to "next" that's "hide all and refresh" if you're still on page 1?
Hide all and refresh would be my preferred option.
Now that reddit has an API endpoint for hiding 50 posts at once, we may as well add a button to RES.
I propose adding it to the "Page #" NER banner and below the nextprev buttons when NER is disabled, and it can remove the posts preceding the button. It could have a yes/no confirmation (optional, default on). After clicking the button, it should hide all posts on front-end and scroll to keep the user looking at the button/banner. This might should be offloaded to the background page in case of throttling.
