Comment on I hate how inescapable politics are on Lemmy, but ya know, at least nobody's constantly asking how I wipe my butt or pick up my dog's poop then completely ignoring me when I try to answer.

I don’t see anything political anywhere these days. Whenever I very rarely do, I just block the user or community in Boost. Similarly for regular feeds like my phone’s builtin Google News, I just started marking them as “Don’t Show Content From [Source]”.

If enough people do this, perhaps publishers will learn that spamming people with misleading ragebait is a losing strategy. Probably not, though.

I actually didn’t know you could block users on Lemmy until now. I’ve been blocking all the big communities so my main page isn’t clogged with stuff I’m not interested in.
