Please ignore - in error, I have asked lemmy where I should not have. (can't figure out how to delete the post)

Quick question - In Mastodon, there is an option to set a "Timed Mute" on a user. Is there an equivalent in Lemmy?

If, for example, I am amused by a community generally but would like to suppress it for a while (maybe I've seen enough old memes or something?) to let a current fad pass but I don't want to block forever (and then forget about it), a timed mute could be just the ticket.

Thoughts. It'd be a definite nice-to-have feature.

Agreed, that sounds perfect for right now.

A certain community I'm subscribed to is very active right now, to the point of almost drowning out all other committees in my feed. A "temporary hide" would be very welcome

My thoughts exactly!

This is not the community for asking these questions. Read the guidelines.

Feel free to report this stuff, too - it'll get it on our radar faster.

What's the best practice for deleting a post? It was in error - just don't know a way to delete it.

Indeed, it does not respect the guidelines
