Any way to turn off memes when browsing Top X hours posts?

I can technically block every meme community I see, but was wondering if there's a way to filter those out.

Just want to sometimes see some news or discussions without endlessly scrolling memes.

Thanks!

Use your subscriptions 🤷🏾‍♂️
- I've always been confused by people who insist on the All feed, then come here complaining "No, not like that!"
If you want the All feed that way, best way I can think of is if you use a client with filters (I use Thunder), try adding the community names to the filter.
I've also requested a "toggle" for filters on Thunder, and may do it myself at some point. But honestly, I switched to my Subscription feed and have been much happier.
- What's your way of discovering communities?
  
  https://lemmyverse.net for starters, but I also run Lemmy Community Seeder (https://github.com/Fmstrat/lcs) with the TRACKER_FILE option.
  Every time a new community has a post that makes Top Day in the first 100, it adds the community to a text file. So I look at that every now and then. I used to have it subscribe my instance, but don't anymore.
I wish lemmy used some sort of organizational hierarchy for subs the way Usenet did. That way you could easily ignore whole swaths off topics you aren’t interested in, like sports, or music, or memes.
