In quite a few of the communities I subscribe to, a portion of the content is provided by bots reposting items from corresponding subreddits. This is often useful, but it’d be helpful to have a filter that would show only “native” Lemmy posts, since these tend to attract more dialog.

Perhaps this could be done by looking for the presence of Reddit URLs in the post text, and/or by triggering on common strings such as “rss” or “bot” in the username.

Thanks for building such a great app.

    Is that an Android client specific option? I don’t see that item in Voyager 2.28 on iOS, but perhaps I haven’t had enough coffee.

      I opened it on the web to get those options. I’m also on iOS. To be fair I haven’t tested that it works in voyager, but I assume it would be filtered out before it even got to voyager.

      It’s annoying but I have to go to the web view all the time to view profiles anyway.
