I'm temporarily taking a break from political activism, and it is tiring seeing everything right now. I have been politically active for 5 years now, and I desperately need a break. Voyager for Lemmy, at least for me, pushes political content like crazy.

Not sure if Voyager exposes such a setting (probably?), but on Tesseract I'd do something like this:

Example of Tesseract's options to filter posts based on keywords

it does, for those who want to limit political posts on Voyager here's how

settings -> filters & blocks -> add keyword
Add stuff like 'MAGA, Trump, Elon' etc.

If you still get political posts from political subs block the sub, if it's not from a political sub see if you could add any new keywords from the title.

However this isn't always going to work, there's always going to be posts that done have anything political in the title but do in the image/post and come from a non-political sub but these steps will cut out most of them.

I'm not on the same act, but I will say I tried this to little avail.
