Weather and transit posts, maybe, but probably mostly just nonsense talk.
Cranky and stuck in no man’s land.
Had to block a bunch of communities to detoxify the homepage

It is mostly due to the API fiasco in 2023. The latest wave earlier this year barely pales in comparison.

Highest daily growth since 2023 at 1.2k per day the past few days.
I did this on mobile, but I would do it all twice to mute it on both mobile on desktop. It’s one of those UX things that’s gonna make it hard to get new users onboard Lemmy, unless the UX can be improved to allow muting words directly within Lemmy and storing the list by Lemmy account.
I wish at the very least, Voyager allowed one to export the muted words list to a file and import the file, which could mitigate some of the hassle. On Mastodon, I have like 75 muted words covering news and politics, so muting them all is just painstakingly time consuming if I have to do it twice, and then updating the list twice as I come up with new words that need muting/blocking.
I was explicitly referring to the pre landlines/payphone era. So this is the time before landlines and payphones.
