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
No, it’s not, and it’d be an example of the decentralization working as intended.
The benefits of being able to have many communities for the same thing can really shine here. As an ‘experiment’, make a lemmy instance of your own, ban all discussion of these topics, and create communities for the things you like there while enforcing the new rules. If the benefits of not discussing those topics are worthwhile to people, they’ll start interacting with your instance and you’ll have made a nice thing for yourself. Otherwise I guess you can keep to yourself in the bubble that you were seeking to create.
