Lemmy Client with Filter (lemmy.ml)

submitted 8 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

11 comments fedilink

I'm not sure where to ask this so I started here: here: Is there a Lemmy client that has a filter. I want to hide posts from particular accounts. Like anyone for hexbear, for example. I know I can set up my own instance, but that's more work than I want right now. I was hoping someone knew a client that could do this.

Why is it not actually in F-droid? They want me to install a private repo? Has it been audited or is this a shill?

Start your niche community on lemmy then advertise it in some other groups. You might be surprised how much better it is here.

I was tuna shamed in school because that's the only sandwich my mother ever put in my lunchbox.

Why is everyone so giddy about the flooding thay happened at burning man? by badelf in c/[email protected]

Yes. I watched it happen. The large number of people that go now pay thousands $$ for a plug-n-play camp and don't contribute their own art (if they even have art). They are not what the festival once stood for.

If you use anything by the monopolist assholes, you can totally expect to get enshitified. I swtiched over to Tidal a while back. They support artists, not hate speech. And the audio quality is better.

CDC issued an alert after identification of locally acquired malaria cases (P. vivax) in two U.S. states (Florida [4] and Texas [1]) within the last 2 months. Locally acquired mosquito-borne malaria has not occurred in the United States since 2003 when eight cases of locally acquired P. vivax malaria were identified in Palm Beach County, FL (1). Mosquito surveillance and control measures have been implemented in the affected area.
