Not Interested

Learn how to flag a publication as 'Not Interested'.

The 'Not Interested' feature allows a Profile to flag a publication as not of interest. This information is then picked up by the Lens API ML models to improve the Profile's feeds.

The list of flagged publications is stored off-chain, they are instant to flag and do not require signatures or gas to use.

You must be authenticated with a Profile to use this feature. See Profile Login for more information.

Flag as 'Not Interested'

You can flag a publication as 'Not Interested' using the Lens SDKs or the API. If you change your mind later, you can easily remove this flag.

React SDK
JavaScript SDK
API

The useNotInterestedToggle hook allows you to mark a publication as 'Not Interested'. If the publication is already marked, using this hook will remove the mark.

Available in @lens-protocol/react-web and @lens-protocol/react-native

import { AnyPublication, useNotInterestedToggle } from '@lens-protocol/react-web';
function Publication({ publication }: { publication: AnyPublication }) {  const { execute, loading } = useNotInterestedToggle();
  const toggle = async () => {    await execute({ publication })  };
  return (    <button onClick={toggle} disabled={loading}>      {publication.operations.isNotInterested ? 'Not interested' : 'Interested'}    </button>  );}

That's it—you've successfully flagged a publication as 'Not Interested'.

Not Interested Status

To determine if a publication has been flagged as 'Not Interested' by the logged-in profile, use the publication.operations.isNotInterested property.

const post = publication as Post;
console.log(post.operations.isNotInterested); // true or false
