Hi, not sure if this is the right place for this, but - I come to slrpnk.net to talk with people about solarpunk ideas and actions, but my dash is frequently filled with endless news stories. If I wanted to read upsetting news, I would… go read the news. Climate in particular has almost no discussion about climate change or actions we can take and only news articles. I’ve been thinking of blocking the community so that I don’t have to sift through news stories to get to posts by members of our community. Does anyone else feel like this?

(Note: this isn’t to say that I’m ungrateful for the folks sharing the news articles. I do appreciate it! I just feel that for myself, I’d rather focus on the possibilities that solarpunk has and human connection with others in this movement.)

    I’d like to be able to dial certain communities up and down: join World News, but only show the top 5 posts per day; join DIY and show everything. That would only solve OP’s problem if ‘climate good news’ or ‘climate action discussion’ were separate communities from ‘climate news’.
