For instance, can I block posts made to specific groups from my feed? Apologies, I’m a Reddit refuge and there’s a bit of content I’d rather not have to weed through.

    You can block communities manually; search for politics in communities and then block each one. But the easiest way right now is to just view your subscribed feed instead of “all”. That way you’ll only see posts from communities you want to see.

      I cannot for the life of me figure out how to manually block a community. I don’t see the option to do so.

        Hello fellow refugee, although I’m on android I’m assuming it’ll be somewhat similar. But it’ll take me a click or two on the community name itself, and usually on the top right there’s the three dot drop down menu. Connect app shows one of the options as “block community”, and Liftoff app shows as “block [community name]”. I’m still scrolling through “all” and seeing what I want to keep or not, so I’ve yet to hit refresh. But hope that somewhat helps.

          I’m using an app called “WefWef” it’s very much like Apollo for Reddit. I don’t have that option though. I’m sure they’ll get around to to.

        I’ll see if I can talk you through it. Are you on your phone or desktop? Apple or android? Are you using an app or a browser?
