I kind of hate that not only does this asshole's face immediately leap at me on Netflix, but now it's on Beehaw too.

    lemmygrad's "shit reactionaries say" does the honorable thing by blurring out their logo when you're not visiting them and always blurring their posts because nobody wants to be jumpscared by that pedophillic neo-nazi on the side of their front page while scrolling.

    This is a message to people in generally, not specifically the top level comment:

    If your instance, or app/frontend offers a keyword filter/block, I would suggest adding Chappelle to the list.

    Politicians, or words of violence can also be added if you generally want a joyful experience on Lemmy; staying up to date the news and politics can be important, but some people get plenty of that from outside of Lemmy, and may want this to be a space to relax, chill, or experience their interests and hobbies, or something important to them on a personal level.

    That sounds lovely, I'll have to take a look. I just use Firefox, so I'm not sure if I have that option, but it certainly would be work looking into if it's possible.

    I've only ever used vger.app (just a frontend in your web browser). It does have filter and block settings under the Settings menu.

    Due to that though I'm not really familiar with standard Lemmy and other apps. I think a recent update to Lemmy itself added the ability to personally block whole instances. I don't see that option in the vger app, but should be available from your instance login if it is up to date.

    I prefer not to use apps where a website will do. No need to have yet another instance of chromuim.

    Oh no, it is a web app (essentially just a website). If you see someone speaking of a web app, it typically won't require any downloading, or separate applications. It is just delivered through your regular browser (like Firefox in your case).

    Unless Apollo comes back with a Lemmy version, I don't intend to ever download a Lemmy app.
