Basically my entire feed is like swiss cheese due to all the articles about Trump and Musk.
Does someone actually enjoy consuming this stuff all day every day? I can’t possibly imagine Lemmy ever becoming popular among the normies if this is what they’d need to deal with.
My feed looks a lot different. And I’ve been blocking posts with these keywords for some time now, plus I’ve unsubscribed from world news and politics communities… But I have a lot of meme pictures in my feed, tech related stuff, casual talk and general questions, comics, animal pictures, computer hobby stuff, movies and TV… Maybe you’re subscribed to the wrong communities?
I’ve unfollowed so many communities due to the overwhelming amount of political articles already. If I keep doing that there’s not going to be anything left to browse soon. People are posting that stuff even on meme communities.
That is correct. I’ve also observed Lemmy is a lot about commenting on the news. And I wish it was more about hobbies, conversations and interesting stuff. You’re generally better off if you like Linux and AI, which are things I’m interested in and those are some pretty active topics… But I can see how that’s not everyone’s pair of shoes.
