PSA: If you're tired of political posts in Technology, block user L4s

TheMurphy@lemmy.world to Technology@lemmy.world – 539 points –

First of all, L4s (sorry misspelled in titel) is not a real user, so no harm done here.

It's an automatic bot xposting from reddit, making this community just as bad as r/technology, which kind frankly only revolves around politics and social media platforms.

I've had the user blocked 2 weeks now, and this community is muuuuch more enjoyable and is actually about technology now.

Just wanted to share a positive experience.

I'm so tired of reddit crossposts, they're fucking useless.

I came here to avoid Reddit.

Now I get their posts like non-interactive ads.

Lemmy is basically Reddit it has all of the same community problems

I haven’t seen a single homophobic or transphobic post or comment yet. *knock on wood

Yeah I'm here to talk to people, not read bot posts

I forgot about those. Just blockbthe bot that posts them.

I can see how they were useful when Lemmy was smaller. But now there's enough content for me to browse that I don't miss those reddit cross posts.
