Stop posts from hiding after being read? (lemmy.world)

EDIT: FIXED - Thanks to a helpful Discord user, it turns out this was a setting on Lemmy not on Sync. On lemmy.world settings I had 'show read posts' unchecked. I presume that's default unless I ticked it by accident. Whoops. I'll leave this post up incase it helps anyone else though.

If I read a post, it gets hidden (after a page refresh)

I can't find any way to disable that setting and I really hate it, because I like to revisit threads to check comments on occasion. Does anyone know how to do this?

Try this:

Settings shortcut: History > Mark posts as read

What magic is this? A link to a setting in my own app? 👁️👄👁️

I'm assuming this was in sync in the beforetimes too, but I never noticed it.

Haha what the hell I thought it was an image. That really is neat.

Thank you for the suggestion! Weirdly, even with that disabled, they still dissapear after I have clicked into them. Although the app no longer marks them as read with a different colour, they still vanish and never reappear after a refresh or app restart.
