I came to Lemmy cause Reddit went to shit, so I get that people want to bash it and I also understand that most of the users of Lemmy are from the US and the shit show that’s happening there right now, but I am absolutely tired of these 2 types of posts being the only thing in my feed, I open this app because I want to learn new interesting things, and maybe see some funny and creative stuff, there’s enough negativity and stress in my life and I don’t need more of that on my only social media app. How do I filter these topics from my feed and which communities can I join to improve my feed.
Those are the most popular posts. I recommend trying to find communities that you like and subscribing to them, then read the subscribed feed.
I recommend finding communities you don’t like and blocking those, then browse the all feed. Otherwise you get 3 posts a week.
That’s not true. I’ve got a pretty active feed of subs, you just need to spend time curating a good list
There hasn’t been a post in /sailing in 2 years. Depends what you’re looking for I guess.
Lemmy is definitely rough if you’re into niche communities, true. So was Reddit in its early years though, to be fair.
i did that and my feed is still filled with politics there are so many to block its neverending
I feel the same same way about Linux posts and pervy anime. Blocking communities is how lemmy dispenses dopamine.
