On the default Lemmy Web UI, you can hover your mouse on the score count.

Feel like this belongs in !fuck_ai@lemmy.world

Think I should cross-post?

If you love stinging and irony enough, it all adds up. Plus it's a pretty funny way to die, so you've got that going for you.

Some Lemmy clients offer the option to auto-hide posts and comments which contain certain keywords of the choice of the user. Are there any plans to implement this feature into the stock Lemmy experience?

I know it is possible to do some hacky stuff with UblockOrigin to do the same, but that is not something most know about and are willing to do.

They have - voluntarily - decided to buy a device that is known to be anti-consumer.

Many Apple users bought their devices before they were aware of Apple's user look in tactics, let alone how they could be problematic. Most people are not into tech, so they wouldn't know. Data on tech illiteracy.

You say that until Google realises that there is no other viable alternative and so they can do the same thing since it's not like there is another option.

I know you ca try and install other OSes, but that isn't an option for many, as many manufacturers make acquiring root access impossible.

You answer is basically a big "go fuck yourself" to everyone who bought an iphone before they knew about the things Apple did to keep users looked in. Same goes for the acquiring root access on an android phone.

People are not born with knowledge.

See... It's not that hard to make something if you actually try.

hmm... And why would you say supporting Russia and Palestine count has "understanding geopolitics"? I say this as someone who does not know too much about it.

Lemmy and other fediverse platforms have, in general, trended towards an increase in users. Been here for a year and I can assure you I have noticed a slow increase in activity.

Lemmy does not have an engagement based algorithm. It does not over analyze your every move to keep you on the site. This means you will have to do content curation yourself.

First of all, the block button exists, use liberally.

Second, the subscribe button exists, so use it to curate a nice subscribed feed

Third, I do believe there are third party clients (lemmy apps made by others) that have a word filter feature which allow you to automatically hide post and comments which contain certain keywords. (I think Voyager has that. Download mobile app here. Use the site version of the app here. Keep in mind that it uses lemm.ee as its default instance.)


But yeah, content curration is kinda just left up to you. Subscribe, Block. That's it.

Alternatively, you could join a "themed instance", that is, an instance made to house a particular community or interest, like that star-trek instance, but Lemmy does not have enough users for those to be able to exist.


If you want creative stuff, might want to have a look at !artshare@lemmy.world? Sorry, I don't have much for you.

I feel like this should be cross-posted to !fuck_ai@lemmy.world.
