The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

I only still go to reddit for that on one account (in incognito). My main account has only recently logged back in for regular browsing (but I try not to comment and I only use old.reddit + res) because Reddit is where a huge amount of the information I'm trying to find online is still housed, game information, niche hobbies, etc... It may be rotting from the inside, but its corpse is still walking and talking, and until the situation gets bad enough people are going to continue using it. I only interact here, but with the nature of how small the communities are, and the fact that I use [All - Top -Past 6 hours] my front page is still basically just the same articles about every fucked up thing going on around me posted onto every instance so I see the same headlines and pictures of Trump almost a dozen times, interspersed with various fetish porn communities.
Feel free to block mentions of him name, either on your app or using a uBlock filter: https://lemmy.world/post/24545370
Does anyone know of any plug-in or app that removes photos of him and Musk? I want to stay informed, but goddamn am I sick of seeing their faces plastered on every article. Even reader mode keeps the photos in.
I think the biggest worry could be the repetition. Seeing an article on anything once - be it Brazilian economy or Norwegian electric grid - is interesting and great, but seeing the same article 12 times in a day can get tedious.
This isn't a problem with just Lemmy, but it's where I see it as it's mostly what I use.
I'd like to see a change to prevent this duplication, but I suspect it'd be challenging to merge comment histories and/or keep comments separated. Just, once I've seen a trump article, for sure, I don't want to see that sad dreck another 11 times!
lol if i filtered out trump/musk posts and block the furry instances there would be nothing left!

Try sorting by scaled to we posts form smaller communities trying to grow.
There is lots of stuff on lemmy outside of Trump/Musk and furries (tbh I think either I blocked the furries or somehow have not come across it for months now)
Thanks for posting this. I was wondering about a way to filter posts.
