Is there a way to derank certain magazines on user side? Something between full blocking and full allowing a magazine? (kbin.social)

Some instances and groups are very chatty (*gestures to /lemmyshitposts), so much so that they dominate the All page.

I knew that there would be a point that browsing /all would no longer be a pleasant or feasible experience, but I quite liked having a pulse on what everyone in the #threadiverse (that kbin.social federates to, anyway) are thinking. But right now it seems @memes is dominating everything.

I don't want to fully block them from showing up in my feed, but i don't want to let them full send either. Would it be feasible to add a feature in future releases to be able to adjust the algorhythm on the user-side that would allow for mutes, or deranking it in your feed, instead of outright blocking it?

Perhaps it would be possible to make the all feed collapse posts that fall under the same community? Something like "x posted on somemagazine, with y other posts today" which would just link to the community?

I do agree that the memes have been fun but also it's kind of dominated my feed lately -- I've had to stick to /sub

I was speaking about this in another thread, but what I envisioned was some sort of "Also seen in.." thing that would show other communities that the same content was posted in. Like Reddit's "Discussions also in..." buttons, except visible from the frontpage.
