I am writing to ask if there is a way to clean the lemmy feed out. As far as I see, mastodon follows rss like subscription model while as in lemmy i get plenty of politicial, memes, controversial stuff even if I don’t subscribe them. I am tired honestly to block pretty much all such communities and it doesn’t help too much too because there is plenty such communities f.e. “onion” “not onion”. How do you deal with setting lemmy to serve you only technology / science / news ( only related to tech and science ), cosmos, engineering ones and arts ones ( photography, paintings etc )? I would be very grateful for any suggestions as I struggle to use lemmy as a new user

    The easiest way would be subscribing to the communities you want and then using the subscribed feed instead of the all feed

    Some frontends (mostly the apps) have filters you can use to filter content but the main frontend doesn’t currently apart from blocking the communities

      I am gonna read only until here…

      Seriously guys, isn’t that the way to use these sites!?

      This is the way I used Reddit 99% of the time, so yeah, I missed a lot of drama… But that would be a perk for some…

      Edit: lol I just scrolled a bit and found this.
