This new UX change sucks ass. When I hide a post I want it gone.

very insidious and shitty. once i started taking advantage of the hide feature it legitimately improved my mental health -- which sounds addict and bad but honestly i used to get riled up at certain posts or topics and now i could just hide them with a click
get fucked spez
Honestly, I take the opposite view - to me that's one of the best changes they've made in ages and I'm glad it propagated to old.reddit as well as showing up in new reddit; it's been an occasional frustration to hit 'hide' by mistake on something I wanted to see, then need to navigate to the far corners of the profile just to un-hide it again was always extra-silly. Next up maybe they can turn off auto-hide when reporting a post.
I agree with OP...would like to be able to do that here on Lemmy as well...if you want to not see a post here, you have to block the user altogether.
Edit: Just tested it OP, after you refresh it goes away...it's just a chance to Undo before it disappears entirely. It's not a terrible change :)
I swear they must have the worlds worst dev team.
