Same. Though can we also add a button to hide all content pertaining to US state politics? “The governor of Arkansas-” I live in The Netherlands, that shit has no bearing on me
or us politics
More like hide all the furry boards
Shh… you can block communities. (You habe to see them at least once though :/)
There’s like 800 different furry communities, all for extremely specific fetishes.
Give us an option to block memes as well then, my biggest issue with Lemmy is the tsunami of terrible and practically unavoidable memes. I don’t ever see sports content, rarely see NSFW content, there is a fair amount of Elon spam, but really the worst are the memes. Even doing my best to hide the meme communities they are unavoidable.
I really wish there could be tags and sub-tags.
Tag examples:
- Politics
- Sport
- Anime
- News
- AI
Sub-tag examples:
- US
- Europe
- Africa
- Basketball
- Volleyball
- F1
Some sort of curated list by Lemmy developers that might change over time depending on user demand.
Then client apps can fetch such list from any server and allow you to apply such filter.
Imagine being able to block whole category of sports? Anime? News? Whatever people want/don’t want.
I would like the platform itself to support this, as I often use the website.
That’s why he said Lemmy developers, not instance developers.
With Sync you can just pre-emptively filter based on keywords.
Lemmy for me is all Linux, politics, boobs, anime and sports. I’m a straight woman who hates sports and anime, has a surface interest in Linux but doesn’t wish to debate about it, and likes to be knowledgeable about both world and US politics but hates the anger. I’m really debating if Lemmy is for me, but I won’t go back to reddit and I need someplace to browse when the insomnia strikes.
I started blocking like a madman and my experience improved considerably
