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.

How do I filter all of the posts asking to filter posts?

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.

Uline makes some great disposable foam earplugs that I've used when shooting my guns and won't hurt your ears with prolonged use.

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

/c/lemmyconnect on Android lets you filter by keywords.

Thunder doesn’t support it yet, but it has extremely active development and a great community. Maybe check it out, start an issue on GitHub.

Mlem supports this on iOS. Voyager does as well, it’s a progressive web app, so it works almost everywhere.
