I go online as an escape from reality. So why the fuck would I hangout in a space where I’m surrounded by terrible views regarding women, race, gender, etc? We’re all in echo chambers. I don’t come here to debate some asshole that thinks climate change is a hoax and ICE is good.
“I don’t like reality.”

The best time to uninstall social media is 10 years ago. The second best time is now.
This is the way.
I just did that earlier today - 100% works.
110%
Need to save this for the next time somebody says Lemmy is too toxic :3
Can Lemmy block keywords yet?
I’m pretty sure it can. At least on jerboa app
How? Opening Jerboa now, I see I can block things like users, communities, and instances, but I don’t see a way to block a keyword.
Yep looks like I was wrong. Could’ve sworn it had that capability. Maybe I was thinking of Apollo or something?
You can do it on boost
A bunch of third-party apps have that feature, just not base Lemmy itself. Copying an old post of mine (which may be a bit outdated at this point):
Lemmy itself allows you to block communities, instances, and users. But it does not support filtering by keyword, e.g. filtering out any post with the word “platypus” in the title regardless of where it was posted or by whom. With help from the comments below, here are some third party Lemmy clients that have their own implementation of keyword filtering:
- Boost
- Connect
- Eternity
- Interstellar
- Raccoon
- Summit
- Sync
- Tesseract
- Thunder
- Voyager
Do NOT support keyword filtering:
- Alexandrite
- Jerboa
- Lemmy UI
- mlmym
- Next
- Photon
- Quiblr
Comment anything I have missed or mistakes I made
Is there a reason they are reposting everything that’s over a year old?
Because this place is an echo chamber where critical thinking is questioned but simplistic memes are celebrated
critical thinking is questioned
Is it?
Very much so
Imagine the trouble we could have avoided if our media would do the same…
I knew we were in trouble when troll posts were becoming nightly news. Now we have a demented pedophile troll as president. Yay…
Well it’s what the people want. If you can’t beat them, join them? Fuck taking the high road
I feel attacked.
