      I recommend Connect for lemmy if you have Android. Can put in filters to block communities that contain any keywords and posts that contain key words. And block entire instances.

      When it comes to social media filtering is important to curate out the filler you don’t want.

        It’s not about filters. It’s the community it self.

        News in Lemmy is biased at best.

          What place isn’t. If you want unbiased aggregate of news the only option is a rss. There isn’t a place for an unbiased social media for news if it is user submitted and driven by voting or algorithm based.

            I said biased at best because it’s cancer at worse. To me, it’s pure democats media and everything should be reported as such.

            I live in the other side of the world so I don’t care much about US politics btw.

        A great feature, but with a small userbase making a small amount of content, filtering those things out leaves you with not much left.

      Makes sense as yes, Elon and republicans fucking suck. Not sure what else one would say about them.

      Definitely recommend subscribing to stuff you’re more interested in and browsing that way. All is always going to be a bit lowest common denominator, same as on every similar site.
