Sometimes I want it, sometimes I don't.
It'd be nice if I could collect channels into custom feeds, so I could have a separate feed for my political channels. And if those feeds could be shareable

Multicommunities have been funded: https://join-lemmy.org/news/2024-09-11_-_New_NLnet_funding_for_Lemmy
That's such good news! It's especially important given how small many of the communities are compared to their counterparts on Reddit. I want to group all my miniature wargaming communities into one feed.
Interesting.
I'm not really a reddit user so idk how multireddits work. Is it something a user sets up for themselves? Or is it something public like a subreddit?
It's basically what you said in your previous comment, personal custom feeds defined by users for themselves. Some could be made public, but the usual use case was private.
I'm more tired of dozens of reposts of the same porn that I can't filter out because NSFW is a catch-all for anything 18+. I also have an issue with the quality of the said porn :-P
Start making your own
OP, please reword to be an open-ended question.
like that?
People who complain about content on lemmy should probably just look for different communities. Or maybe not be psychotic right-wingers looking for 8chan edgelord content.
No
Anarchist? No.
Communist? Yes.
That stuff is still a bit of a problem on reddit.
Hey you tried posting content instead of just bitching about what you "don't like to see"?
But don't you see, this is technically content
Ah a fellow enjoyer of sarcasm. Man you know what I miss those posts about people bitching about people bitching about reddit.
The amount of hate I get every time when I call out political opinions posted as "memes" is incredible. Every time it's either some mental gymnastics about how it actually counts as meme or alternatively ad-hominem accusations about my underlaying motives of only calling out left-wing political memes and never right-wing ones (I wonder why).
The truth is that my feed is almost exclusively politics despite me blocking every single political instance other than the ones for general news. I bet there's even a community dedicated to political memes but no. Some people absolutely have to inject their political views everywhere.

Just gonna leave out the detail that you go to communities that are about the content you're seeing to complain about said content?
mental gymnastics about how it actually counts as meme
Still too stubborn to just admit you don't know what a meme is I see
I just had a look, because I remembered there was a "non-political memes" community. Turns out it's on lemmy.ml ([email protected]). Not the biggest fan of lemmy.ml due to the instance-wide bans: https://feddit.nl/post/16246531
I guess I might open a discussion on [email protected] to discuss a potential new community. Probably next year.
Yeah, sometimes.
But, like Lemmy is (almost) entirely populated by people who so strongly disagreed with the political drama (either uspol or redditpol) of reddit that they took specific action about it.
It's a wonder Lemmy isn't all radical politics.
I'm tired of seing the same superficial content everywhere in general. I just accept it and try to quickly scroll past them.
My opinion:
I just wish someone would stop with all those leftist memes like ‘future of humanity under socialism vs. capitalism’ because it’s just, in a crude manner, cringe. They’re not very unique, and fail to underline even the basic differences between the two ideologies.
Capitalism is not understood by everyone here, and I feel like those making this stuff are extremely young, have yet to understand what the world offers.
It’s clear that socialism does have its merits but making memes simply mocking capitalism without showing crude memes… not worth it.
I just downvote those kind of posts, they’re awfully low quality and low effort.
What annoys me is the assumption that socialism or communism would fix all of our problems and noone would ever do or feel something bad again.
It does get very predictable and repetitive. I feel like the conversation goes the same way under each political meme.
I don't mind edgy leftist memes, I just get annoyed at how overconfident MLs in particular are about their broader grasp of political philosophy.
I love it when they try to give me reading assignments. I was there when the deep magic was written, freshman!
In 99% of the cases they haven't even read beyond the Wikipedia summary anyway, in my experience.
You’re lucky if they get that far. I’ve had people argue over facts that were easily verifiable by multiple sources. I’m too old to do their research for them.
I saw a post about someone who made sliders (mini hamburgers) and everyone they'd served them to so far liked them. I wish we had more posts like that one. The problem with Lemmy is there is not enough active niche communities for peoples interests. This is one thing Reddit does much better due to the scale of the user base.
It feels like a brief respite every time I stumble on a post like that.
You are not the only one. I am starting to unsubscribe from communities that I feel like it is simply too much of. I get that people want it, and that's their choice, but it's feeling a bit overwhelming lately. I thought it might decrease after the USA election but... nope.
No ?
OP be careful, you've inadvertently spoken the sacred incantation and summoned the dreaded political content right into this very thread!
No, but I don't see them much.
