Well, I set myself up for this, didn't I... 😅 Actually I was kind of hoping for a more specific question, as I would need to respond with a wall of text - and I would like to avoid that as it is kinda rude to force people to read so much and it makes discussion difficult.
So maybe 3 options:
- Wall of text
- You have a more specific question in mind to rephrase
- I try to summarize my wall of text, but I might not get the point across
You could look into using 3rd party clients to view Lemmy. They often enhance the default behavior with additional features. E.g. Voyager (the one I'm using) has a "keyword filter".
