Asking as I recently subscribed to a community that is fed by a bot which posts pretty frequently.
I subscribed to be able to mark the community to find it when I want to, but it’s now dominating my subscribed feed due to volume of posts. If I could keep this one specific community from showing up in the feed, that would be the preferred solution. Thanks!
Subscribe puts it in your Subscribed feed.
Favorite just adds it to a list of communities, like a bookmark/shortcut type of thing.
If I’m not mistaken.
In Memmy, I added a few communities to Favorites.
As soon as I unsubscribed from them, they disappeared from both Subscripts and Favorites.
Are there different Favorites options with web and app versions?
Hmm. Could be. I was using Mlem for a bit, but then just switched to wefwef, which is something like a clone of Apollo.
Well, heck. It is like Apollo in that regard. I can add all the dumb meme communities to favorites and not have them clog up my timeline. I guess I’ll be using Voyager more.
Memmy was almost there with its Favorites support, but they require subscriptions to function (which is how the official Reddit app also works).
I don’t know how to do specifically what you are asking, but an alternate solution may be to go into your settings, and uncheck the box for ‘show bot accounts’. This will prevent those bot posts from showing up in your subscribed feed, and allow you to see non-bot posts in that community. Of course the downside is that you won’t see posts from potentially useful bots, if you care about that.
I’m sure that not every bot is currently marked as such, though.
