    Subscribed - Active first usually, I like reading comments.

    Then if I’m bored at work Top of Day - All with a variety of USA specific word filters set to Dim in Piefed if the post mentions Trump etc for example. I don’t outright hide those posts but I’m not a big fan of doomscrolling a country I don’t live in too often. Makes it easy to avoid unless I make an actual effort to read the dimmed post title.

      I didn’t realize you could do that. I do get tired of the US centered posts. They seem so angry and frustrated. I don’t need that.

        My main gripe is them overflowing into global communities not intended for politics and posting even more US politics anyways like we all need to see ugly pedophile faces more often than we see our own loved ones.

        Yeah the Piefed filters are a great feature. You can outright make filtered posts (and comments!) invisible but I do like to stay informed within reason, just uh…when I consent to.
