Block subs with a lot of that content. Then, to get rid of the other half of it, block users that post a lot of political content. It takes a while to get rid of most of it. Also, some social media platforms have less political content than others. If you are willing to create what you want to see, maybe you can make a sub or group somewhere that has a bot for filtering that kind of content.

Politics have purposely been shoved in our faces because of the geopolitical situation the world is in. There are a lot of actors in this scene trying to pull you in every direction. Creating safe, non-political spaces is in and of itself a kind of rebellion and many people desire it despite not admitting to it. Remember how some non-political spaces were before they became politicized? If people force it to become partially that way again, the frequent mental illness of the modern age might reduce to a decent degree.

I get that things look really bad, but stressing about it online until you are too burnt out to make sense of things or do the things you’re supposed to do is exactly what some of your more dangerous enemies actually want. It takes some guts to fight the common political addictions of the modern age - everyone wants to make you feel like it’s all that matters and it is NOT

What communities are you subscribing to where you’re seeing all this political content? I hardly see any posts about politics and I’ve made no particular effort to filter it out of my feed. I just subscribe to tech communities. Just subscribe to communities about the topics you’re interested in and don’t subscribe to politics/news/current events communities?

Lemmy isn’t pushing political content, Lemmy users tend to be very politically charged, thus the content reflects that.

I just set a filter to weed out the word ‘Trump’. The bubble is cozy, come on in

I’m specifically using Voyager on iOS and MacOS (and in Windows via BlueStacks) because I do exactly this. I block several whole instances (lemmygrad and hexbear), the active politics communities, and also specific keywords (elon, musk, trump, gop, republican, etc.), so I’m even able to browse All without my eyeballs being seared.

I use the Boost app, and I mute certain keywords so I don’t see content containing them. More than these but these are the political ones I started with; liberal, conservative, Trump, Biden, Kamala, MAGA, Elon

Also helps for the furry content, but different keywords.

+1 on just sub view. I have two accounts one that has news and politics and one that has none and on my non politics account I see almost none of it other than the stay comment in another sub and because I have the two accounts if it becomes a problem i have no issue just blocking that person. Since I can see their content on the other account.

Switch over to only reading communities you opt in to - avoid political ones.
