  1. Type "Změny ostatních" and click.
  2. Nastavení Poslední změny Skrýt vylepšenou verzi posledních změn.

Hi @Kusurija. Yes, it's easy to hide your own edits. Just go to the "Contribution authorship" filter section and select the "Changes by others" filter. Leave "Changes by you" unchecked.

What you may notice here is that the New Filters reverse the logic of the old system. In the past, you selected things you wanted to exclude or "hide". In the New Filters, you select the things you want to include (e.g., in your case, "changes by others"). While this logic is a change, it's standard on common commercial sites like Amazon or Zappos, where users refine search results by selecting the characteristics they want to include in their purchase. If you give it a try, I think you'll get used to it pretty quickly.

If you don't, you can opt out of the New Filters by going to Preferences>Recent Changes and selecting "Hide the improved version of Recent Changes." Be warned, however: you'll lose access to all the new filters and other features that were added in the New Filters for Edit Review upgrades. Cheers!
