Comment on Why is Lemmy attempting to radicalise people to enforce class wars?

Not that I entirely disagree, but…
This could be easily fixed in the coding of Lemmy, but… it hasn’t.
I’m not sure how this could be fixed on the software level? Care to elaborate? Or even better, write up an issue + PR which proposes the “easy fix”.
Sure, I’m thinking controls for a better feed that doesn’t give voice to the constant political crap, more control over it, better blocking of post bots and AI slop generating bots.
Honestly, I’d rather just look for a better server with less politically outspoken nobodies.
Since according to you this is an easy coding issue that no one’s bothered to implement, how would you from a technical standpoint implement those improvements?

if content == political { content.censor = true };It’s like you don’t want this.

Shit sorry,
the CIA told me not to point outI forgot that all content already automatically carries the political flag if it contradicts OP’s political biases, and thus all we need to do is check for that and censor accordingly.catty@lemmy.world 8 hours ago
It isn’t that it contradicts any political biases. But, it’s like, ok, enough, we get it, yawn, now for positive stuff like hobbies, fun stuff, not the same whinging circle jerk over and over again.

Yeah, sorry, I was being a bit catty with that reply. But algorithmically identifying something as “whinging circle jerk” is really difficult unless you wanna throw away the baby with the bathwater. I think someone elsewhere in the thread recommended creating a second account just for the hobby communities, if you wanna avoid the political memery. If the hobby communities feel quiet, well, you have the power to change that by posting something there.
