Why is my home feed on lemmy and kbin filled with posts about beans? Where did this recent obsession come from?

    There was a post on Lemmy yesterday that said something like “Lemmy will upvote anything this is just a photo of a tin of beans”. … and the shitposting started. :)

    I’m sticking with ‘subscribed’ for a while

      I’ve started blocking shit posting subs. Nothing against a good shit post but it cleans up my feed without having to resort to subscribed.

        How do you block subs? Is that app specific or an account feature? I used to have a good list of blocked subs in Apollo.

          I’m using Liftoff but you can do it with the website too. The option shows up on the sidebar of the sub on Lemmy and on the drop down menu on Kbin (the circle with the slash).
