I feel like /c/memes has taught us a valuable lesson today: Would it make sense to develop a feature to block a comm from our feed for a selectable unit of time (1 hour, 1 day, etc.)? (lemmy.ml)

Even if we're subscribed to them? Could a temp block exist in conjunction with a subscription? I love c/memes but holy shit no matter which sort I select by they've managed to overwhelm my feed.

You can always configure it on uBlock Origin (supposing you are using the web version)

Before influx of Reddit users, there were too much of topics I didn't want to get into. So i just created my own cosmetic rules:

lemmy.ml##.d-sm-block.d-none > .row:has-text(Blockchain)
lemmy.ml##.d-sm-block.d-none > .row:has-text(ChatGPT)

What it does, is, that it blocks entries that contains unwanted phrases like 'Blockchain' or 'ChatGPT' .

If you don't like me, for example, you can also add:

lemmy.ml##.d-sm-block.d-none > .row:has-text(raubarno)

And you won't see my posts.
