I don’t want to block world_news and news altogether, I still want to see the less political and the non ukraine war related news, so what other options do I have?

    This is more of a support question, please see the sidebar for suggestions on communities where you could better ask this question. Removing under rule #3.

      Plug your ears with your fingers and sing; news will infiltrate literally every aspect of your life in some form or another because it is the nature of reality: shit happens everywhere and someone is there to tell people about it.

      You can’t live in your safe little bubble sustainably. However, to answer your question, kbin allows you to filter keywords and domains that have news, not sure about lemmy.

      Edit: seems like I’m dumb.

    What I did on reddit was to filter specific political words using RIF. If the app you’re using supports word filters I would do that

    I’d like the same thing. Plus I see a lot of posts asking for it too.

    Hopefully the devs can add an “I’d like to see less/more of this” button. The next question is, how does the algorithm decide which posts to allow, is it by most upvotes, most recent, most comments, most controversial (lots of upvotes and downvotes), etc. Just brainstorming.
