Is there a way to set personal filters for certain Lemmy "subs"?

Kiosade@lemmy.ca to Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world – 5 points –

I’m liking how active the overall Lemmy community is already getting, but the subs I like aren’t SUPER active yet, so I go to “all” and see a bunch of random stuff. Is there a way to make it so I don’t have to see certain subs? I use wefwef if that matters.

under your user -> settings -> blocks tab, you can block specific communities. And there's an NSFW block there or under the settings tab if you want.

So you're talking about a sort of negative subscription. THat is ... "All" but not (a, b, c, ...).

Nope.

You may want to post this idea in !lemmywishlist@lemmy.ml.

Generally though this issue has come up before and is on the roadmap in same way at least in the form of "multi-communities". But your specific request here is different enough that it might be worth bringing up. I'm not sure it'd be a high priority though.

Filter out: beans

I'm really out of the loop on this one, but I've heard beans being mentioned more than usual.

What did I miss?

Not sure why it started on lemme but it's something that was done on reddit for about a week. I think redditors are trying to make this place feel like home and shitpost.

You can certainly block communities in Lemmy – I've done that plenty of times. However, I don't think wefwef supports that yet, as I've looked all over and haven't found it.

EDIT: I need to amend this and clarify that it's Connect for Lemmy that's been allowing me to block communities, instances, and users. I hope all apps included this feature.
