We all know that social media can be a mixed bag, filled with both valuable content and unwanted noise. To help everyone curate their feeds better, let’s create a list of must-block tags that can enhance our social media experience! Here’s how you can contribute:
- Single Option Per Comment: Mention one tag per comment to make it easier for others to find the most popular ones.
- No Duplicates: Please avoid repeating tags that have already been mentioned to ensure a diverse range of options.
- Upvote What You Dislike: If you see a tag that you also think should be blocked, upvote it to help others discover it more easily.
Let’s work together to create a comprehensive list of tags that everyone should consider blocking for a more enjoyable social media experience! What tags do you think should be on the list?
This reeks of chatGPT. You couldn’t write this post on your own?
Donald Trump
Makes sense.
Elon Musk
Makes sense.
I have a few that catch a bunch of useless annoying stuff I don’t wanna see:
- AI / ML shit - bunch of keywords to remove posts like: ai, llm, machinelearning
- apple bullshit and fanboism: wwdc, apple, iphone and multiple variations of tags for specific annual events
- blusky talk: blsky, bluesky and variations
- a whole thing about sports events like soccer with lots of words
- specific annual events for things like: eurovision, adventofcode, olympics, motogp
- some brainwashing from the oligarchs, things like: spacex, etc
This is all specific to mastodon, in my settings. on lemmy I haven’t blocked anything yet, I mean, I only follow the subs I want to.
You completely ignored the very specific and obsessive instructions, so I am going to have to upvote you.
Religion ( insert flavour of cult here )
Makes sense
Republican
Anything related to arguing about fanfiction
ChatGPT
US news
Makes sense.
gore
anime
Billionaire
Makes sense.
In social media? Not much.
Here I block any and all threads and communities that focus on US news. Specifically stuff that just has a generic name (“News”) but is 100% US-focused content.
Night and day improvement, frankly.
we don’t really have tags on Lemmy, but I blocked the anime subs just because I don’t find reposted images without any text enjoyable the same way I find music enjoyable. I do appreciate the insane amount of effort that goes into making them though.
With an exception for vocaloid ones because I do enjoy vocaloid music
