Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone had a way to filter out news on Lemmy so I can save my mental health and just look unimportant bs posts sometimes.

    Indeed, and the “moe” communities is probably another common use case for the communities name filter

      I feel like blocking such a small word like that would probably cause a number of false positives, causing me to not see some unrelated community that happens to have those three letters in its name.

      Yeah.

      The politics communities dont fill my heart with joy, and the moe communities are creepy, but if I block those what’s left?

      I spend an unhealthy amount of time doomscrolling the fediverse, but I really dont know why.
