Is there a way to specify fewer posts from a community without leaving/turning off posts completely?

I have a few that seem to overwhelm my feed, and while I’d like to see some content, I’d rather it not drown everything else out.

TIA.

    If it’s 196, just pick an individual post you don’t like, and search that users posts. Then block them individually. That page has some really out there posts and by blocking individual users, I don’t see it nearly as much, and the quality is higher.

      That’s a good idea. I unsubscribed from a few communities because there were some overly enthusiastic posters that weren’t my taste. I should have just blocked them instead!

        I feel it works pretty good because some communities have good quality posts with only a handful of people that would otherwise turn me off from it but once I started doing that, I realized it didn’t take a whole lot of blocks to clean up my feed significantly.

    I usually use the “scaled” feed sorting algorithm instead of the default “active” one. It does a better job of showing a larger variety of posts, including posts from small communities.

    That’s what the different sorting algorithms are for. Trying sorting by “active” or “scaled” and see how it goes

    I agree about this. Reddit and co do this automatically. I would like to increase or decrease priority of communities, something like a score multiplier for post rankings.

    But, not it doesn’t have it.
