I’m not sure what’s going on over there, but half the time I see a post from there or go into a comment section and it’s just…bad. Like old reddit the_donald bad. Constant trolling, etc. You TS just really bad vibes. I’ve been blocking the communities as they come up, but I’m not sure what else I can do.

    i’ve been blocking all the politics and politic-adjacent communities left right and center

    How?? Please tell me your secrets. My kbin “blocked” tab now covers three pages and I barely feel like I’m making a dent.

      i’ve also been blocking manually as i come across them. i guess what we consider politics-adjacent is different enough that it seems to work for me.

      i’m also considering filtering out a few common news sites but i haven’t done anything of that sort yet.

      as for my secrets, i have these https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/1633853 ready to go but those are pretty lemmy-only so they probably won’t help you there

        No no, this is good. Lemmy ones apply to me too, and the assorted “Lemmies” are where a lot of the activity happens anyway. Thanks!
