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.

    I've been using piefed for a while, and I didn't know this.

    Turns out I've not been seeing NSFW posts too - I guess I didn't miss that.

    You're right, you can hide posts with keywords in the name.

    Additionally, I see you can hide posts from communities with keywords in their name. This means you could hide "politics" without having to block all the politics communities.

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

    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.
