You all need to find the courage to close with reddit forever. It's done, don't you see it? Everything was taken away from apps to moderators power, purge of old messages, and soon the reward system. What this suppost to mean? What else will be removed? It is in falldown.
I would like to, but the fact is lemmy is 99% shitposts and memes. Don't get me wrong, I like that stuff but I also need to know wtf is going on in the world. Since losing rif and refusing to use the official app, I am now basically getting news when my wife sees it on Facebook, which means it's old news by then.
We all have our bias. My lemmy is not like that. Which means you're not curating your feed.
I block every community with content I'm not interested in. It works. My lemmy feed is very interesting.
Any tips you can share on how you did this? I'm totally new to Lemmy, and I'm having a hard time finding and/or discovering interesting communities.
You'll have to look for the 'block community' button. Depending on the UI you're using, this can be in different places.
In Lemmy's default UI, you first click the part under the title identifying the community under which it was posted. Let's say it was posted under
darkmemes@lemmy.world. What you do is:darkmemes@lemmy.world;On a phone app, the process may be less cumbersome. On Thunder, an Android app, you just have to click and hold the post, wait until a menu appears, and then select 'block community'.
They're saying the opposite. They block things they aren't interested in.
