I know this is a broad question, and dont expect to be able to filter everything. Is there a way to filter out news on Lemmy so I can just scroll saving my mental health at times?

If you must browse places other than your subscribed feed, I'd suggest blocking news and country-related communities. Exceptions may happen, so maybe worth not being too trigger-happy and evaluating if the community is problematic.

Also, since you're on Lemmy, there's no native option for it, but you can hide posts with Ublock Origin when they link to sites that are usually agenda or political bickering-driven.
