is there a way to reduce the frequency of posts from specific communities? (lemmy.ml)

My feed is blown up by posts from memes. Like, 80% of posts are all from memes. Regardless of how I sort. If sorted by new/hot/top/active, any combination, it’s ALL memes.

Is there a way from the site, or any app that has the function to just reduce the amount? Or do I need to just block that community?

It doesn’t matter. All feeds are 80% memes.

I'm guessing then that you'll have to unsub from whichever communities are the worst offenders if you're not interested in blocking them entirely 🤷🏾‍♀️

Will that reduce them from all feeds? Or just not show them from by home feed?

Unsubbing will only remove them from your Subscribed feed, but blocking a community should get rid of them altogether for you.

I haven't seen anything from lotrmemes since I blocked them. That was the most intrusively meme-y community for me. The nuclear option should do the trick if you're really just plain over it.

Good luck!

Yeah. I blocked it. Shame. I like it, but that is just WAY too much posting.

Maybe it'll settle down in time and you can venture back one day 🙃

That’s the hope.
