We all have our bias. My lemmy is not like that. Which means you're not curating your feed.
I block every community with content I'm not interested in. It works. My lemmy feed is very interesting.
Same. It might take a minute to curate for the specific news you want, but there are plenty of communities providing substantive news at least daily.
Any tips you can share on how you did this? I'm totally new to Lemmy, and I'm having a hard time finding and/or discovering interesting communities.
You'll have to look for the 'block community' button. Depending on the UI you're using, this can be in different places.
In Lemmy's default UI, you first click the part under the title identifying the community under which it was posted. Let's say it was posted under
[email protected]
. What you do is:[email protected]
;.
On a phone app, the process may be less cumbersome. On Thunder, an Android app, you just have to click and hold the post, wait until a menu appears, and then select 'block community'.
They're saying the opposite. They block things they aren't interested in.
