I also did not come here for politics.

I came here as an alternative to reddit.

What I did to fix it was to find similar Lemmy communities to those subreddits. I also set up filtering to block out key words, names, etc.

It makes it a lot more bearable.

One thing I've noticed, Lemmy and Reddit are run in a large part by content bots when it comes to non-politics. There are some exceptions. I recommend you make peace with the bots and appreciate the content (all the while contributing content yourself of course).

Android 16 could offer a bigger UI refresh than previously expected, and we're all for it in c/android@lemmy.world

I'm one of the "we".

I read about that recently as well. There is a problem though. Your phone can turn your voice into text instantly. It’s a feature built in to your keyboard. They could turn the audio into text and then transmit the text only. Saves much data that way.

What's something that you used to hate, but now love? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

Asparagus. It turns out that canned asparagus is gross but steamed is great.

TIP: KDE Breeze offers rounded window decorations even with Firefox (lemmy.world)
 

I think this has been this way for a little while, but Breeze offers the ability to take it from the half squared/half rounded window decoration to a full rounded version. You just have to enable the thin border option in the Breeze window decoration settings. (sorry I'm not at a Linux OS right now to say exact name of the setting).

HOWEVER, I discovered that Firefox has included the option to make it's own bottom border rounded on Linux, which up until then was a sore point for KDE themes. To enable it, in Firefox about:config, turn "widget.gtk.rounded-bottom-corners.enabled" to "true" and restart Firefox.

I have no idea how long that FF setting has been there, but I'm really glad it is.

Now we have fully rounded window decorations and a proper looking DE. Thanks!!
