Spambox@sh.itjust.works 1 year agoI recommend Connect for lemmy if you have Android. Can put in filters to block communities that contain any keywords and posts that contain key words. And block entire instances.
When it comes to social media filtering is important to curate out the filler you don’t want.
It’s not about filters. It’s the community it self.
News in Lemmy is a biased at best.
What place isn’t. If you want unbiased aggregate of news the only option is a rss. There isn’t a place for an unbiased social media for news if it is user submitted and driven by voting or algorithm based.
I said biased at best because it’s cancer at worse. To me, it’s pure democats media and everything should be reported as such.
I live in the other side of the world so I don’t care much about US politics btw.
A great feature, but with a small userbase making a small amount of content, filtering those things out leaves you with not much left.
Definitely recommend subscribing to stuff you’re more interested in and browsing that way. All is always going to be a bit lowest common denominator, same as on every similar site.
So a fair reflection of reality? I get that. I have different venues to escape reality myself.
Welcome to Reddit reposts V2
I followed hobby communities and never ever touch All or similar equivalents. Sometimes All has other stuff, but all too often there’s some kind of post talking about what you mentioned or that is just a link to rage bait and the comments are full of rage.
I even agree with a lot of those opinions! I just don’t want to think about EloncarsworkrepublicanGoogle 24/7, I want to have a good time. So I stay in my subscribed feed.
Damn dude, that was such a spot-on summary I feel like I don’t need to log in to lemmy for a month lol

Makes sense as yes, Elon and republicans fucking suck. Not sure what else one would say about them.
