Is there an option "show less posts like this" here on Lemmy? (sh.itjust.works)

I wouldn't like to actually block a community all together here, but yeah, I would like to see less posts of that community. Is there a way to do this, either in Jerboa or the web UI?

If you have control of your instance's backend, that's definitely the better approach.

Over on AT Protocol they have a system of pluggable algorithms. You can publish info on an "algorithm" to your account's profile, and people can add your algorithm as a feed on their homepage, and then when they request their homepage their home server contacts your server and tells it a bit about them, and you send back a feed of posts.

So people can customize the post selection and share those customizations without the instance/home server admin needing to be in on it.

Hm, like a hook... should work.

Will look into this a bit more. Thanks for the tips 👍.
