Agreed whats more annoying is getting double X posts back to back
Your kinda right. It's more the back to back nature of Elon posts that's annoying.
I kinda found out changing Lemmy's sorting algorithm from Active/Hot to New posts helps spread out the news (and even helps unearth lesser covered issues).
We need c/enoughMuskSpam
Yes, please! One more community about Musk clogging up my feed.
No, it's about telling the posters to post Musk related content exclusively in that community.
Yeah, that's not gonna work
I'm not seeing how this is related. Make a rule in the sidebar which tells the poster to post Musk content that community instead. And if he still posts, it can be auto-deleted/locked (not sure if this capability exists in Lemmy yet).
Edit: Also, the community won't be on your feed if you block it. It can be a nice automod feature to automatically move posts to another community if it detects Musk/Twitter/X keyword in the title.
I guess it might help channel all the effort and energy into one dedicated community that you can simply unsubscribe from. Like a honey pot trap.
You are not going to get people who want to see Twitter covered as technology to go into a community made by people who don't think Twitter should be covered as technology
Joining a community centered solely around content you want to avoid seems counter-productive.
