This is just a very basic (in my non-developer opinion) request.
There is a rapidly increasing amount of posts filling feeds and for me at least, I am spread pretty thin with time and with any I do find spare, I am writing content.
I see articles flow through that catch my eye and would like to have a read of but do not have a chance at that instant. This means that later, I have to search through a thousand posts to find it again which is laborious and unlikely. It would be great if there was a star that I could bookmark it in a list for later.
I think this would help get more eyes on work and more engagement overall. It may also mean that articles are more likely to be read several days after posting, giving an increased exposure length.
At the moment, it seems that people are much more likely to only read the articles as they appear in the feed, they won't go very deep at each logon. Perhaps, if there was a star 'read later' function, people could more often touch Steemit base quickly and skim and bookmark for later.
I know for the people with young children, this would be handy as there are very few times other than late at night when there is the space to get into some decent reading.
For me anyway, I think this would be quite valuable.
Perhaps, the starred content could be sent to a reader app where they are given in a swipeable layered list with some basic options to comment, up, resteem or delete from list.
Anyone else interested?

EDIT: I have tried using the 'flag for later' button but people don't seem to appreciate it :P
