    I’ve got keywords “Elon”, “Trump” and now also “Vance” added to my block list. Please tag these posts so I don’t have to see them. Thank you very much

      I honestly don’t have to do shit, unless it was listed in da rules (and also because I will forget this with ADHD). You can mute me, if you want to, I don’t blame you.

        Personally, I don’t mind the politics. However, @Robin@lemmy.world clearly doesn’t want them, for their own personal reasons. Is it really too much to politely request someone to add ONE word to the title? Do you mean to imply that in order to make such requests, the minimum requirement is for them to suffer?

        Also, you cannot assume that they are unaffected. For many people, including some I know, the Internet is a place of refuge and respite from the harsh reality of the current world.

          Imo this is a failing of Lemmy itself. There needs to be a way to tag content under certain (community-specific?) categories, without needing to put a bunch of shit in the title.

            I personally think that we should introduce content warnings to Lemmy. While we’re at it, we could entirely replace NSFW with CWs. CWs are much more robust and nuanced.

        And you know that how? Maybe they’re affected more than you and this is for their mental sanity? Either way, block lists exist for a reason.

        I’d rather live affected so I move out this shithole (aka U.S.) as soon as possible.
