As long as they can go from their taxpayer-funded air-conditioned offices, to their taxpayer-funded air-conditioned limos, to their taxpayer-funded air-conditioned mansions, they’re good.

I think the biggest limiting factor here is the lack of RAM on that system.

If you run out of items to view on Lemmy, you can always go out and, like, engage with family, or hobbies, or grass-touching…

Adding, I found an option in my Mastodon client to hide boosts from my time line. Which solves my original problem. 🙂

Ahhh. See, I didn’t realize the “@news” I was following on Mastodon was actually a Lemmy group. I though it was specific to Mastodon, and expected it would be a news repeater/aggregator. Didn’t know it would also include all responses to the news posts.

It goes with a larger confusion on my part about how Mastodon works, I guess.
