If you use Sync for Lemmy, you can add filters that removes certain topics of your choosing.

Given that Europe was talking about banning the app anyway, this strikes me as a you can’t fire me I quit situation

Watching Musk and Twitter destroy each other has been my guilty pleasure for the last couple of months.
Hopefully that will get us another wave of users who have not really used reddit before and want to try something new.

Musk considers removing X platform from Europe over EU law - Insider Reuters October 19, 20232:36 AM GMT+2Updated 7 hours ago
Tesla CEO and X owner Elon Musk attends the VivaTech conference in Paris Elon Musk, Chief Executive Officer of SpaceX and Tesla and owner of X, formerly known as Twitter, attends the Viva Technology conference dedicated to innovation and startups at the Porte de Versailles exhibition centre in Paris, France, June 16, 2023. Oct 18 (Reuters) - Elon Musk, owner of social media platform X, is considering removing the service formerly called Twitter from Europe in response to a new internet platform regulation in the region, news site Insider reported on Wednesday.
The billionaire has discussed removing the app’s availability in the region, or blocking users in the European Union from accessing it, a person familiar with the company told the publication.
The European Union in August adopted the Digital Services Act (DSA), which sets forth rules for preventing the spread of harmful content, banning or limiting certain user-targeting practices, and sharing some internal data with regulators and associated researchers, among other things.
X did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.

Good riddance.

The DSA would nullify the entire point of buying twitter, forcing him to reveal exactly how he is using the platform to further his goals.
In addition to the liability exemptions, the DSA would introduce a wide-ranging set of new obligations on platforms, including some that aim to disclose to regulators how their algorithms work, while other obligations would create transparency on how decisions to remove content are taken
