Well that sounds terrifying!

Is it possible to remain subscribed to Technology but not get posts about this person?

[–] RickyRigatoni@lemmy.ml 38 points 8 months ago

Remember when the reddit technology sub banned articles about tesla? Good times.

Depending on your client you can likely filter or block specific users and phrases.

Does Lemmy have post tags or flair or whatever it's called?

[–] ademir@lemmy.eco.br 10 points 8 months ago

It is under development

With Boost for Lemmy you can block specific words, really good app btw, they have their own Lemmy community. https://lemmy.world/c/boostforlemmy

Thanks, sounds useful here.

Sadly I am fussy when it comes to apps and Boost appears to be proprietary.

If you're on mobile, connect has a post filtering by keyword feature

[–] hypnicjerk@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago

i mostly browse via old.lemmy.world and i am badly missing RES and its filters.

I would love that. Closest you can get is blocking the top Musk posters, my feed significantly improved since then (not perfect solution of course, as you might lose other content, and sometimes you’ll see Musk posts like these from an OP who is not always spamming them)

[–] Scotty_Trees@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

Who are these top musk posters so I can block them too? So tired of hearing an asshat continue to be an asshat. Every. Single. Day.

[–] KingThrillgore@lemmy.ml 1 points 8 months ago

Boost and Sync have hide support.

[–] onlinepersona@programming.dev 1 points 8 months ago

Dunno how to ping the mods, but maybe they should add that rule. It's pretty annoying to get spammed about Muskrat and XXX.

[–] AtHeartEngineer@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

Sync can filter by keywords.
