lmfao this thread is nothing but whiny bitches mad that they god forbid might see something that doesnt interest them specifically.
That’s kind of how this whole thing is supposed to work though, so yeah, it’s a legit concern. And in this example, since the thing they don’t want to see is so massively popular, it’s everywhere.
Imagine how annoyed you would be seeing something you can’t stand everywhere you go, and dozens of times on a site you thought you could avoid it at.
I don’t care much seeing a random post that I don’t care about, but when it’s content that I fucking hate, I look for ways to not have to put up with it when possible, unless it becomes more work than just scrolling past it.

Can you do that with Jerboa?
Where is the “hide all americans” button?
Especially US politics. I couldn’t care less.
Or as some Americans say, “I could care less”
The purpose of language is to communicate, if it is understood by the target audience it is correct.
Why do they say it like that? 😂. Don’t they listen to what they are saying?
Because language evolves and isn’t prescriptivist. Especially in the US where a Founding Father wrote a dictionary to explicitly reject strict prescriptivism(it was still prescriptivist in ways but better than contemporaries).
This is not an example of evolution, this is just a widespread error.
The target understands it, therefore it is correct language
Using America in your argument has nullified it in my mind🤣
the argument is about america??
But at this point I couldn’t care less 😂
You mentioned the founding fathers I assumed that was the american ones
Yeah. It is about why Americans say it- so it is relevant to American history?
It’d take effort to care any less than I currently do. And I don’t care enough to reduce my interest any further.
Let me know when you find it lol
Add gaming while you’re at it. I’m a former gamer but I’m in full on grandpa mode at this point and sick of seeing it.
Unless it’s NSFW sports content
it doesnt have to be nsfw; women’s official nfl uniforms circa 2021 on male players would have improved the game dramatically. lol
Thats the best !!
Omg, no way this would get past Showerthoughts nazi Mods on reddit.

I’d love a way to block “all anime / hentai / manga” related topics and posts.
That stuff is everywhere, and invades everything. Like a cancer. Even communities which aren’t anime related. I’ll be subscribed to some community because I’m into the topic the community is based on - which has nothing to do with anime- and then some damn anime fan comes along and posts some weird/creepy “anime/hentai version of [topic]” and then it just spirals from there, and another community turns into another fucking anime community.
Believe it or not, not everyone on the internet is obsessed with Japanese style animation, and the associated (weird/creepy) sexualization of such drawn/animated characters.
What is most creepy about it is that all the “women” look like kids. They look like little girls with really big boobs. I don’t understand the appeal.
Exactly! That’s what bothers me about the “art” the most. Ew!
Almost every “comics” community I’ve joined on here has gone from people talking about actual published comics to people postin webcomics and their own works within days.
I dont think I’ve literally ever seen that happen and I’ve been on the Internet since I could walk
I guess we have different interests / see different things on the internet. But it definitely happens. Often.
I’m the same, I routinely filter out anime stuff. Probably the most annoying thing is that I started playing FFXiV and now my in-line adverts are for gaccha anime crap and generally super cringe/bonk horny.
Yeah kind of,but then I would be even more out of touch with society.
“Have you seen that ludicrous display last night?”
FOR. FUCKING. REAL.
Lemme just start my browsing experience by blocking 6 more god-forsaken, bot-run sports communities. Is there any corner of this fucking earth I can go to and NOT be bombarded by goddamned sports?
Sports are fun man, just pick something up and throw it – it feels good!
My god, why haven’t I thought of that after all these years!
Sounds like a question for your therapist ;)
Not good at ‘bombardment’, huh?
Why did you subscribe to it? Or are you browsing All instead of Subscribed?
Browsing all is pretty good for Lemmy currently. I don’t have many subscribed “subreddits” yet so my subbed feed is pretty barren. On Reddit I only browsed subbed.
Isn’t that the main problem that instead of whitelisting you’re trying to blacklist?
if you didnt delete your reddit account yet, this may be useful for you Python script to transfer subreddit subscriptions to Lemmy or Kbin
I used it and browsing to only subscribed feels pretty comfy, although, at this stage i think its better to sort for all
Meh, I like wheel related sports, partial to BMX but I’ll take what I can get. I’m not into ball sports at all though.
How about a filter that can filter out all men playing with their balls?.. 🤔
Oof I forgot about motor sports. IMO even more boring than ball sports.
Which I didn’t think was possible, but I forgot about motor/wheel sports existence
I’ll toss you an upvote for admitting you forgot about the flip side. Yeah, not all sports are ball sports.
Like I said, I’m a BMX flatlander, which isn’t even motor powered. You’re thinking of MX, Motocross, a bit above my skill and nerve level.
But hey, to each their own, I just never found interest in playing with balls LMFAO!
I would like a hide previous posts option. So many things are reposted.
This isn’t a problem for me. I just block out those instances. Also I swap to the everything feed every so often to find new communities to sub to, then usually go back to subscription feed.
Exactly. I’m too lazy to set filters and what not, but I just know what I’m getting into for the All feed. I deal with that until I can’t take it, add a few communities, and retreat back to the safety of Subscribed.
I need one for politics
Where’s the line drawn tho? So many things can be classified as politics
Maybe filter by keyword. “Football”,“Baseball”,“Elon”. Would need to filter by post title, text, community name and description.
everything is political
News about some dude called DeSantis, whatever some obscure (to me) american politicians decide or say. I keep seeing them. I’m from eastern Europe and I’m not interested in them.
My block and filter lists are long, yet not effective enough.
deleted by creator
Oh wow, I always read that name and I have absolutely no idea who he is. I’m from the EU
deleted by creator
He is the governor of the state of Florida and a potential US presidential candidate.
Useful filters to get rid of him are: DeSantis, Rhonda sandtits, “pudding fingers”
(Don’t ask)
Yeh I’d love a “hide all elon/twitter/x” toggle.
