RULES:


I am looking for mods!


1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.

2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)

3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.

4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.

5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.

6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.

MODERATORS
 

The election, the CEO murder, etc.

And when I tried to say something about it, I get downvoted, and get replies that I am a bootlicker or something etc.

Oh yeah, also, Lemmy discussion is very one-sided and lacks nuance.

I have more things to say, but I prefer sleeping. That's all

Use block community. I do it all the time now even for things I like.

For example I like an occasional cat photo but my lemmy.world page was nothing but cat photos for a week.

I've got 1322 communities blocked myself ๐Ÿ˜‚. Still plenty of content to view using either the 'all' feed or my front page.

I also use filters a bunch, which helps with stuff like excessive posts about certain creeps in tech or getting spammed with quasi-duplicate posts across multiple communities that I otherwise want to see content from.

Got a few instances blocked as well - seems like Lemmy has a pretty good set of tools to customize content.
