Thought experiment: Is it possible to ban posts across all feds about trump, elon and similar topics for a week?
Not only would I like to not hear about any of the assholes or shitty crap going on for a week, id like to not talk about them either. Is it even possible?
Not for like censorship reasons but for more mental health and logic reasons. Do people's moods improve? Is more interesting and funny content generated? Does the media/news algorthym absolutely shit itself?
Yes yes I'm sure you can filter out what you don't want to see personally and what not blah blah blah, but I mean for us. All of us. Maybe we just need to ignore the fuccbois for a bit. Imagine a world without them
Its unhealthy to ignore and hide away from problems of the world.
If you want to avoid that sort of content, either setup keyword / instance blocks to control what you see, or go offline entirely for some time.
To follow your suggestion though - theres no one person/team that controls the fediverse. To get, for example, all trump posts banned across all the fediverse you would need agreement from all instance admins to agree to it, and enforce it
I mean my whole feed was nothing but Trump and Elon when I made the post. So universally disliked but getting so much attention to encourage the behavior
