Elon Musk gives X employees one year to replace your bank - ‘You won’t need a bank account... it would blow my mind if we don’t have that rolled out by the end of next year.’ (www.theverge.com)

“If it involves money. It’ll be on our platform. Money or securities or whatever. So, it’s not just like send $20 to my friend. I’m talking about, like, you won’t need a bank account.”

Well that sounds terrifying!

Is it possible to remain subscribed to Technology but not get posts about this person?

[–] RickyRigatoni@lemmy.ml 40 points 1 year ago

Remember when the reddit technology sub banned articles about tesla? Good times.

Depending on your client you can likely filter or block specific users and phrases.

Does Lemmy have post tags or flair or whatever it's called?

[–] ademir@lemmy.eco.br 10 points 1 year ago

It is under development

With Boost for Lemmy you can block specific words, really good app btw, they have their own Lemmy community. https://lemmy.world/c/boostforlemmy

Thanks, sounds useful here.

Sadly I am fussy when it comes to apps and Boost appears to be proprietary.

[–] systemglitch@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Too bad, it makes Lemmy quite pleasant to use. I've been using Boost for years (when it was a Reddit app), and imo he makes the best apps for these kinds of sites.

If you're on mobile, connect has a post filtering by keyword feature

[–] hypnicjerk@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

i mostly browse via old.lemmy.world and i am badly missing RES and its filters.

[–] slaacaa@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I would love that. Closest you can get is blocking the top Musk posters, my feed significantly improved since then (not perfect solution of course, as you might lose other content, and sometimes you’ll see Musk posts like these from an OP who is not always spamming them)

[–] Scotty_Trees@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Who are these top musk posters so I can block them too? So tired of hearing an asshat continue to be an asshat. Every. Single. Day.

[–] onlinepersona@programming.dev 2 points 1 year ago

Dunno how to ping the mods, but maybe they should add that rule. It's pretty annoying to get spammed about Muskrat and XXX.

[–] AtHeartEngineer@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Sync can filter by keywords.

[–] KingThrillgore@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Boost and Sync have hide support.
