I’m sorry if it felt that way, I probably should have just gone to bed after the post and not bother with those comments if they were veering off topic.

Aside from the longer daylight hours at the beginning of summer, the worst bit about winter is how it is dark for most of the day, and the sun going down in the mid afternoon. IMO the best time of the year would probably be the spring where the days are longer and it is not as cold or hot, minus all the worst parts of summer. It still is crazy to me how much summer is overrated and idolized by most people compared to other seasons or weather. Not even fall/autumn either, with its fall foliage; seems to able to compete for the attention that summer seems to get; despite it marking the end of the hot and humid season. I suppose it’s because it’s back to school season, so people can’t enjoy the return to comfortable temperatures as much anymore.

I did this on mobile, but I would do it all twice to mute it on both mobile on desktop. It’s one of those UX things that’s gonna make it hard to get new users onboard Lemmy, unless the UX can be improved to allow muting words directly within Lemmy and storing the list by Lemmy account.

I wish at the very least, Voyager allowed one to export the muted words list to a file and import the file, which could mitigate some of the hassle. On Mastodon, I have like 75 muted words covering news and politics, so muting them all is just painstakingly time consuming if I have to do it twice, and then updating the list twice as I come up with new words that need muting/blocking.
