Fewer Posts from Community? (sh.itjust.works)

submitted 5 days ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

9 comments fedilink hide all child comments

Is there a way to specify fewer posts from a community without leaving/turning off posts completely?

I have a few that seem to overwhelm my feed, and while I’d like to see some content, I’d rather it not drown everything else out.

TIA.

If it's 196, just pick an individual post you don't like, and search that users posts. Then block them individually. That page has some really out there posts and by blocking individual users, I don't see it nearly as much, and the quality is higher.

That's a good idea. I unsubscribed from a few communities because there were some overly enthusiastic posters that weren't my taste. I should have just blocked them instead!

I feel it works pretty good because some communities have good quality posts with only a handful of people that would otherwise turn me off from it but once I started doing that, I realized it didn't take a whole lot of blocks to clean up my feed significantly.
