I was Reddit earlier and viewing one of question subs. The top 5 comments were all 'jokes'.

What's worse is no matter how unfunny the top jokes are you'll get hundreds of cold comments flogging the joke to death.

The 6th top comment actually answered the question.

Lemmy may not have as much content but what is here is so much better quality.

Yes, this would be an excellent feature. Only problem is people exploiting it to hide or ridicule legitimate responses they don't agree with. But that's a problem for later. With the cussing userbase and growth rate this feature works be great for quite a while.

I believe the implication is you self flag these while writing them, so people can filter them out if they dont want the clutter
