not reading that. lemmy devs, please get on blocking "news" sources in the vein of sun, nypost, etc.

edit: I don't mean the mods should ban domains. I want the option to not show submissions from certain domains, like the ones I mentioned, as there's zero chance I'd ever read anything from them. a buncha reddit (and lemmy) clients have that option.

You mean implementing a functionality with which users can block posts from certain URLs to show up on their feeds?

[–] glitching@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 months ago

boost for reddit (and lemmy) has the option to ignore posts from certain domains. since I have no intention ever reading anything from the domains I mentioned, I'd appreciate it in the web version.

This themakes the USA look like we're a bunch of petty bitches. WTF is this bullshit, cowardly border agents. Seriously we're a kakistocracy with a bunch of elected officials and appointed officials that are thin skinned pussies.
