I try my best to only downvote explicitly hateful or unhelpful comments

But I can get it because I have blocked every single news source I possibly can, and like every three to eight days a new one pops up.

Like, I don't give a fuck about news. I don't want to know how miserable the world is or how much more miserable it is than yesterday. I want to look at kitties and titties and maybe some funny stuff in between and that's about it.

Once you amass a collection of communities that do interest you, you could browse your subscribed feed instead of all. That's what I've done. It got annoying needing to skip past a lot of content that wasn't relevant to me, was crossposted and showed up as duplicates, or was in a language I don't speak. Then you have a whitelist you can grow when you feel like it instead of a blacklist that needs to be added to when new communities show up. Subbing to one of those new community promotion places lets you see most of the active new communities anyway, and you can check out any interesting ones without them invading your feed first.

Piefed has built in keyword filters.

The Lemmy.world team has an instance: https://piefed.world/

I don't care about news either, and the amount I see has reduced quite a lot thanks to that.

The keyword filters are amazing. Its transformed my mood when visiting the site.
