  You could just block the communities and instances…?

    Their communities with a mix of good content and meme spam

  Some clients let you do that

    I have yet to find one. The domain filter trick used to work on Reddit because the images had a different domain name that they would be hosted on. That’s not true for Lemmy

      I’m using Summit, it can toggle off links, texts, pictures, and video posts

  So you hate 99% of Lemmy then. Maybe stop using it?

    Lemmy is not 99% memes. I have most meme communities blocked and I never run out of posts on my feed

      It’s a huge percentage images. Which is what OP specifically mentioned wanting to turn off.

      “I blocked all the memes and now there’s no memes”

      …okay

        “I read what you wrote as a standalone comment instead of as a reply so I ignored all context”

        …okay

        If the person I replied to was correct in saying that 99% of Lemmy is memes and I have memes blocked, that would mean I am only seeing 1% of posts when I browse. I am saying that if that was true, I would run out of posts quite quickly and that has not been my experience at all. I’d wager it’s much closer to 50% memes than 99%
