I’ve been filtering my search results to not show anything after 2020 for a while now. The only annoying thing is that I have to do it every time I search, I’d love a way to set it as default.

I agree. I specifically want an option to remove new users’ posts from my feed. With the hope that by the time Lemmy doesn’t consider them new anymore, they’ve either chilled out and post like a normal person instead of spamming, or they’ve been removed from their community for being a nuisance or bot.
Same here. Shortly after I joined the Fediverse I didn’t want my feed to look like Reddit’s, so I made a rule that if I saw more than one post by someone on my feed at a time that I’d block them. The majority of these are new accounts, so I’d also like the option to filter these accounts out.


Sure, that’s sort of what I said.


The shells may not have inherently sharp edges, but if they’re big enough to fit over your ears, and weren’t caged in some convoluted way, if you rolled over and broke them, then you might have some sharp problems.


I can for this example yes, but those were sort of rhetorical questions about how polls like this are presented in general. I suppose the linked article is more clear than the title of this post is. “49% of Americans believe,” No, 49% of people who voted on this NY Times poll believe this. I know, it’s impossible to actually get every American to weigh in on this poll, I’m just saying I don’t like statistics like this because to me they don’t mean anything other than a 1000 or so people feel this way.


Who conducts these polls? How many people were polled? 100? 1000? I always see “Americans say this” or “People believe that”, but I certainly never voted on any poll, no one I know has. It always makes me feel like the polling base is going to be biased or carefully selected in some way to achieve the desired percentages.


You’re not the only one that needs a wash around here
What really boggles me is when I open a game and the ui buttons are ai. Why? It must have taken you longer to have your engine generate those graphics than it would’ve to just grabbed some royalty free ones. I really don’t understand it. I’ve even seen what are clearly ai generated emojis as buttons.
