Asking as I recently subscribed to a community that is fed by a bot which posts pretty frequently.

I subscribed to be able to mark the community to find it when I want to, but it’s now dominating my subscribed feed due to volume of posts. If I could keep this one specific community from showing up in the feed, that would be the preferred solution. Thanks!

    Subscribe puts it in your Subscribed feed.

    Favorite just adds it to a list of communities, like a bookmark/shortcut type of thing.

    If I’m not mistaken.

      In Memmy, I added a few communities to Favorites.

      As soon as I unsubscribed from them, they disappeared from both Subscripts and Favorites.

      Are there different Favorites options with web and app versions?

        Hmm. Could be. I was using Mlem for a bit, but then just switched to wefwef, which is something like a clone of Apollo.

          Well, heck. It is like Apollo in that regard. I can add all the dumb meme communities to favorites and not have them clog up my timeline. I guess I’ll be using Voyager more.

          Memmy was almost there with its Favorites support, but they require subscriptions to function (which is how the official Reddit app also works).

    I don’t know how to do specifically what you are asking, but an alternate solution may be to go into your settings, and uncheck the box for ‘show bot accounts’. This will prevent those bot posts from showing up in your subscribed feed, and allow you to see non-bot posts in that community. Of course the downside is that you won’t see posts from potentially useful bots, if you care about that.

      I’m sure that not every bot is currently marked as such, though.

      Ah, I’m thinking Lemmy might no have this as a feature yet (I don’t want to block all bots as the bot is the only thing that posts to the community in question Thanks so much for the suggestion though!

        Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected])

    I too would like to know how to hide my porn community from my feed. Any suggestions?

      Haha, yeah, I see it sounds like that, but no, I was talking about this community where a bot curates the results of people’s AI art prompts. Some of the stuff it generates is just really cool looking.
