Question about downvoted post propagation (lm.boing.icu)

I'm using my own instance. Is there a way to block the posts coming from other instances that are below a certain threshold? For example -3 upvotes. I don't need to see them I trust the moderators of other instances to handle their own posts responsibly. As it is today half my Homescreen is full of -40 voted posts that might have been deleted on their home instance already. But they get downloaded to me regardless.

Not answering your question but partially related: personally wouldn't advise using your server's admin account for casual browsing, lest a password stealing CVE pops up (happened in the past with custom emojis), or something else along those lines happens

Thanks, good point. Didn't know about that risk
