Now you can try to get chatgpt to explain what it does. Or Facebooks code llama.

I mean in the main feed, as opposed to the subs/community subscriptions tab. I'd like to use it for content exploration, similar to how I would use /r/all on Reddit, but with memes filtered out.

I don't know if this can be adjusted at the platform level, but is it possible you could put in a filter for meme posts? That is 85% of my feed, and I'd really like to minimize them as much as possible.

I come to Reddit(and now Lemmy) for discussions rather than memes, and the content I'm looking for just doesn't appear in my feed at all really. It would be great if there was a way to filter out or diminish the quantity of those types of posts. Reddit has flair, which makes it easy to filter that way. I'm not sure if Lemmy has something comparable that would allow easy filtration like that.

Unfortunately until it's implemented I just can't bring myself to use Lemmy full time. It's too chaotic content wise, but once it's implemented I may fully switch over.

This should solve that when it gets implemented.

There’s not a good way to control what content I see. It’s essentially either “everything” or “a single community”. On Reddit, you could already have multiple communities about the same topic on Reddit, but usually one was dominant, and you had multireddits to save you if there truly are a few good related subreddits. Now on Lemmy, you multiply that problem by N instances, and subtract the multireddit feature. This situation simply must be made better somehow.

Community grouping. It would massively increase the available content, and make lemmy much easier to browse.
