I got ya
I would post more but I got this computer yesterday and have not transferred my old meme folder yet. Ah well
Subscribed !
And then you look for a community devoted to your hobbies and the most recent post is from a year ago.
I like to be informed, however I wouldn’t call whatever happens on lemmy as information sharing but more like endless ranting. I get it it is what it is but I think it is healthier to have more than one topic
On the plus side my internet usage went down because I just do news check up daily and I lose desire to use internet further
Helps a little bit.
A disturbance in the Fediverse. As if a million posts and comments cried out and were silenced.
They fixed that bug so now if someone cross posts your content and gets banned, it won’t delete your images
What’s that from? I can filter on my desktop that way via Adblock origin but not on my phone.
Lemmy custom interface. An example one is Tesseract.
Alternatively you can use Ublock filters.
Use an app that allows blocking posts by keyword, like Voyager.
This is my list of keywords that keeps me sane while browsing lemmy:
I do the same. I still get a ton of posts like this don’t include any relevant key words and still are about musk or trump. It’s impossible to escape.
Its absolutely impossible to be on Lemmy and avoid political post even with keyword filters because keywords don’t filter on meme content, usually.
I’m on Voyager and had no idea it did this! Thanks for sharing.
Sometimes it yearn for the days the Harlem shake was a meme, and the Numa Numa guy, and badgers badgers badgers…
And if you really want to go even farther back to the 90s and super early 2000s internet (i am talking about pre 9/11) you had Where Are The Toons Now? And peanut butter jelly time and the Mr. T vs. (Insert random opponent here). Does anyone remember when Mr. T was an internet meme? Or even Bert is evil (a 90s meme literally stopped by 9/11).
While fun stuff obviously still exists aplenty (i actually like the skibidi stuff) I just wish we could do that again. But Trump is fucking everything up so much that I can simply cannot look away. It is everywhere.
You’re the man now dog
Yeah that’s fine but you don’t need to tell us all about the continuous unraveling of your society.
Our society.
you might not be american but you sure do live on planet earth

Why are there so many people assuming every lemmy user is from the USA
Sometimes its bad for mental health to continuously see all the bad things that are happening in the richest country in the world
Same as Reddit, Americans don’t seem to be able to comprehend that there are other non Americans on the internet. It’s crazy.
Bonus points for people saying ‘here, where I’m from, not in my country’, they are all from the US. Anyone who mentions where they live with zero context and assumes you understand is a yank.
It’s always funny seeing non-Americans assume that the problems of America are unique to America and that anyone talking about those problems can only be from America.
I’m not amoroncan, but unfortunately what happen there have consequences for all of us

It’s terrible for your mental health to be constantly bombarded with “the sky is falling” news.
“the sky is falling” is implying that what’s being talked about isn’t real. The rise in fascism is very real and very global.
I might occasionally be accused of being political, but yes. Lemmy is no escape. Many users from any instance will jam their politics into anything and everything, constantly. It’s genuinely weathering.
You want to vibe and chill? HOW DARE YOU! DONT YOU KNOW X IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW!?!?!?!?
WHY ARENT YOU MAD ABOUT X??? ARE YOU A MONSTER??
Starting to think of unsubing from technology, too often it’s about trump and musk. But it’s also one of the largest communities.
Problem when most active communities at least sometimes include US political bullshit is that few are left without it if you just want to block it. We are not all Americans, it isn’t helpful to constantly have US bullshit showing up. Hopefully as lemmy grows the smaller communities will grow and I can have a feed full of kayaking, Linux memes and homebrewing.
I mean we live in a neo nazi fasict state. It was chill during bama years

No, it was chill for you
Come to my sub.
Just set up some filters and you will more peace. Some will still get through but it will not feel like a deluge.
But but but what if you’re a dumb dumb like me and don’t know where the filters are?
Well then you just see that content day in, day out and slowly sink into a pit of despair.
🥲
Serioulsy though, try to figure out how to filter these things. I have been a lot less sad and depressed since I did it.
I figured it out! XD the feed is a lot less annoying now.
Awesome! Enjoy the peace :-)
Always have been
Filter them out. I did it myself. It helps.
Fenslerfilms GI Joe PSA’s ftw. “Pork chop sandwiches!!!”
Who wants a body massage?
Fi-fi-fire on your sleeve!
Block .world and the feed is massively better
Also massively emptier
