Please could you add a toggle to filter out posts by new accounts? My feed often contains low-effort links to news articles, always posted by new accounts. I’ve filtered out the users, but they just get new accounts on other instances to continue.
Please comment if you’d also like this feature added!
(Edited to add screenshots of new accounts, and my blocklist containing another low effort user)
Maybe the better solution is just to change your sorting method? Maybe “New Comments” would be good here, or “Active”
Thanks, I’m using “hot”… I’ll try your suggestions to at least downgrade the visibility of those posts.
I never really liked Lemmy’s algorithm for “Hot”, I think it leans too hard towards recency instead of votes/activity
I actually made a suggestion to tweak it, but it got declined https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/4471
you could drop a comment there if you think it should be reconsidered
