Do you browse All frequently? When I browse my subscribed comms I don’t see that much politics stuff. (I have a separate account for that, when I’m feeling more resilient than usual.)

You’re trying to avoid politics by filtering keywords, yet your own thread title contains the word “politics”. Curious.
OP made a post trying to figure out how to make his town less lame but also wants to avoid all “politics”… 😮💨
What if I told you that everything is “politics”, be it buying groceries, entertainment, wearing clothes, healthcare, getting around town, having sex, owning a home or getting paid?
I sympathize with OP tbh. While babies being murdered is bad, I want SOME TIME in my life where I don’t have to think about that for the sake of my own survival.
Oh no,caught red handed!!
If you don’t want politics involved, just add the name of every country.
Also “migrant,” (gets rid of immigrant too) “refuge,” (gets rid of refugee) “asylum,” “vaccine,” “climate change,” and “global warming.”
Also with “Israel” and “Zionism” in your list, add “bomb,” “missile,” “dea” (for dead and death).
Good additions
Palestine, ukraine, oil…. Idk. I think like the other person suggested, a different space. Politics……is everywhere.

I’m surprised there are any posts left with those filters.
There’s actually a good bunch of people posting wholesome entertaining posts if you filter out the noise
Also a lot of porn which ranges from legit ametuer to professional and possibly illegal. Like half of all posts when you sort by new is porn.
…there’s only one porn I can think of which would be illegal, and if thats what you’re seeing, report EVERY SINGLE BIT OF IT!!!
Spam the report button.
I’ve seen a couple of sketchy tinytitties posts that I made an anonymous tip for authorities to look into. I downvote them all but I don’t report them because I’m 100% certain the mods would be aware if there is any illegal materials in the mix.
If it looks remotely like CSAM, report it. Mods don’t always know whats posted, unless we get a report. I don’t mod any porn communities, but I’m sure there’s bickering in the communities I do mod that I never see.
Can confirm, there’s plenty
“slams” “melts down”
You misspelled “Israel”, fyi
Isfake
Worth it to add both spellings IMO
Ooh you right
must be nice being able to afford to not care about these things
It’s so nice
Add “Trek”, Star Trek is very political.
And “Linux” and “Open Source”, free software is communist.

Why don’t you condone it? And good list thank you
Ignorance causes many of the problems on this list in the first place, imo.
Fair. I get my news from different sources though, that’s just not what I signed up to lemmy for
Curating one’s feeds does not inherently lead to ignorance.
I’ve been aggressively filtering my newsfeed for years now and I didn’t suddenly forget about all the corruption and injustice. I just have no need for those headlines to overwhelmingly dominate my day-to-day ingestion of news. “Corrupt Oligarch Continues Campaign Against Human Rights” isn’t news to me; it’s the status quo. I don’t need a dozen headlines to remind me the sky is blue every day.
Well said.
Everything is political. What you don’t want to see is either controversy, or bad news. A lot of people call controversy and bad news political, and they’re wrong. We all experience politics all the time, and it’s quite tolerable, even fun, when the controversy and bad news is taken out.
I gave some suggestions on the top-level for political things you can remove that aren’t controversial or bad news; Linux and Star Trek. If you don’t want to remove those, then you should consider being more specific about what you don’t like.
I can use regexes, so it makes it a bit shorter list:
Ooh is that an app or desktop?
Webapp. It’s the development branch of Tesseract.
ukraine iran court oil
Good list, and I think I can just replace iranian with iran since the way boost works that counts for both
