Is there still no way to have your feeds filtered to not show any posts with a score below a certain threshold? This is particularly of interest for posts with negative scores. This was a basic feature on Reddit, and it’s something I can’t believe Lemmy is still lacking. So maybe I’ve missed it somehow?
This would make community moderation much better as low quality content could be easily hidden from user’s feeds without need of intervention from a mod. When I see a post with a negative 50 score it boggles my mind why my time was wasted in seeing it at all.
I’ve looked all through the settings in the web UI and in Voyager and have not found a way to enable this. Any ideas? Do maybe other apps have that ability?

I wasn’t suggesting any kind of moral superiority. Lemmy is open source. If anyone, yourself included, wants a feature, you can make it. That’s what makes FOSS great.
You mentioned Aaron Swartz in the thread. He was self taught, and his activism was driven by his skill as a programmer. Given tumultuous time we live in, programming a valuable asset even if we don’t attain his level of skill.
