Alright so I have a question and can’t figure out a better place to post it than this comment thread.
Kbin is neat and I’ve enjoyed it a reasonable amount for the past week or so. But 80% of my feed is either news and discussion about how bad Reddit is (I know, guys!), memes about about Reddit, and depressing climate change articles that make me panic about things I can’t change. How do I filter stuff like this out of my feed on Fediverse communities?
Thanks.
In a way, it's just like reddit. Subscribe to magazines and then switch your feed to Subscribed. It takes a bit to get a full, diverse feed, but then you'll be filtering by the things you like. Alternately, you can go to the magazines page and block the ones you don't want to see.
Ahh, this is helpful. I looked at my kbin settings page and there isn’t an option to hide magazines, so I thought the feature might not exist. Thanks!
Reddit is a hot topic of discussion right now for completely obvious reasons. That will probably die down in the next couple weeks but I think there's going to be another influx of refugees on the 1st when the 3rd party apps go dark.
Oh my god, same issue here. I'm just ready to use Lemmy (or KBin, or anything) and not constantly read how much better it is than Reddit and how Reddit is going down a death spiral. Let's just move on and provide our own content.
