If the conversation starts with calling liberals “blue conservatives” or calling person or group a fascist then I’m out.
I don’t want to heard your crazy political views.
the internet is just… Such a shitty venue for these conversations. I have friends in the real world who disagree with me. If someone is being nasty online I feel no compunction to spend the brainpower on them. Especially as I continue to struggle with the deluge of bad news and it’s affect on my mental health.
Block away, for your own health and well-being.
completely agree. One thing I hope the federation gets to is as much fine grained control for the user as possible. One thing I like with trustcafe is they have this trust level. 0 is essentially block, 100 is essentially subscribe and the levels between will prioritize them in your feed one direction or another.
I don’t block because I disagree, I block because I’m just sick of seeing certain topics.
Did you know a lot of fediverse apps have filters? Made my life considerably better.
