Hi,
we've been doing an alternate implementation for d8, which basically works the same way - BUT:
- it's entity-generic
- it's written in proper d8 style, e.g. leverages services
- there WIP PR to make it work per view-mode
- it has to be a configured a bit differently. It provides an "Entity render history" views argument default plugin, so you configure a contextual views filter to use the plugin as argument, make it multiple and negate it. That way it's easily usable with any kind of view, even regardless of the query backend (think: search api based views).
It has the same problem though: It does not account for ajax requests.
The reason we did the alternate implementation is that there was nothing here at that point of creation. However, we did not contribute our development here early enough. Sry for that!
The code is over at:
https://github.com/drunomics/views_exclude_previous
What do you think about it? Do you think the code from https://github.com/drunomics/views_exclude_previous would be a good base for further d8 development? I'd be happy with making it a 8.2.x version and to collaborate with you on it if it matches your expectations.

It's likely this issue predates Contrib.social: some issue and comment data are missing.
Will be working on it and release version 3.x soon.
There seems to be little to no activity here. We (me and @fago) are still eager to co-maintain this module and add the improvements from the ticket description in the 3.x version.
