I came here around the time the rif app shut down, and the general vibe I get from this place is much more negative than when I joined. Is Lemmy growing more toxic or is it just my imagination?

      Depending on your client (i use Sync so im not sure about others) but using the filters for certain keywords can block out a bit of the noise. The first two i added a while back were ‘trump’ and ‘musk’ and it was immediately more pleasant.

        I use Voyager and also used keyword filters. Currently I have “Trump, Musk, MAGA, GOP, Repubilcan, Democrat” I still get mostly US political crap content… It seems these filters only apply to the titles?
