Some day, we'll have a technology sub that isn't polluted with Twitter "news".

On Reddit I've found most of the news about the big social networks is posted by only handful accounts, they also don't post other interesting things, so you can just block them.

I'm hoping that'll work on Lemmy as well.

I haven't seen an option to block people here on Lemmy. I'm a new migrant (12+ years on reddit, nuked to oblivion), so maybe I just haven't seen the option yet. But i did look for a quick second before posting this reply, to no avail.

Click on their name, on the upper right of the page you end up on will be two buttons, "Send Message" and "Block User". Hit the latter.

And welcome aboard! (I'm a fairly new Lemmy immigrant as well)
