Rather than browsing by all you can also subscribe to communities that interest you and browse by subscribed.
This is what I do. When the current news cycle is too much for me, I just browse my front page for a few days and avoid the news.
I do the reverse, browse subs most of the time and switch to all if I’m looking for news or new communities to subscribe too.
Same use case, different ratios!
Lemmy allows you to block comms and users pretty easily.
I have over 200 blocked. Not in an “I hate you” way, more in a “This doesn’t interest me” way.
Best solution is to read books instead of social media.
Tiktok is the same. Where you can block people and even tags in the videos.
Without memes? 😭
No. If you dont like memes and US politics… good! You simply get on social media, only follow people you know in real life, and then only use it on desktop where there are browser extensions to block “suggested” content or ads.
Get on each platform maybe once per day max. If you see something new that a friend has posted, leave a comment to tell them how great they are. Once per week or so, make your own post about neat things you are doing. Then, go outside.
English media will always be dominated with us politics. As for memes well, welcome to the internet. The best way to avoid memes is to avoid the internet

or RSS
Better hope those articles you’re reading dont link to anything. Or have pictures
You just described my PieFed/Lemmy subscribed community list.
LinkedIn
In that case i would recommend you block !politics@lemmy.world and !politicalmemes@lemmy.world and !news!world@lemmy.world
Tildes seems to do mostly okay.
No, controversy will always be pushed, I made the mistake of saying threads had a decent algorithim, sht was ruined in a week
There is not such a safe place. All you can do is blocking communities or users who annoys you.
probably some nsfw platform
That is social media. Try downloading a news app instead. I’m considering the same
No. Next question.
Im in the US so I can’t really ignore the US politics and given globalization I would likely want to know about the highlights if I was out of here but I just blocks meme communities. Nothing wrong with blocking. I also block sports as that is not my thing. Problem with us politics is its inundated in the news communities. You could block maybe news communities that are not explicity not the US because we know it still dominates the world news oftentimes. Anyway. Block is your friend.
