I was horrified, after I took a #macro #photography and saw that my "clean" finger was filled with #swarf #particles imbedded in the #fingerprint after 3 hours of just teaching in a #machineshop that day.

At the expense of this kind of garbage? Then no.
I'd be happy with being able to choose to opt out, or ideally opt in.
I don't like being forced into a platform that I don't want to use. I don't use Instagram, Tumblr, etc. for a reason.
but you can
Go to an instance that doesn't federate with those other instances you don't like, or run your own and do whatever you want.
~~Where do I find this list of what instances are federated? That doesn't exist? Oh well that's not useful is it?~~*
Requiring someone to sift through each instance in the hopes of finding one that happens to not federate with these kinds of platforms is an unreasonable suggestion.†
Run my own instance? Fuck off with that. I don't have the time.
Your 'solutions' are not real solutions. It's a cop-out of accepting the fact this is a limitation of Lemmy and the federation system that all these are based on.
*edit: This does exist, apparently. Though I have no idea where a person is supposed to find that page on their own. I've looked for this before multiple times.
†Added point after being shown the list exists.

Why are you so hostile?
Oh wow. That's useful. Thanks for that. I had no idea that page existed. I've looked for this before and even looked again before my last comment. Where is that even found? Lemmy can be frustrating.
Because your suggestions are rude and that seems intentional.
Your suggestions require a preposterous amount of effort for something that is best solved by letting the user block this kind of content, like being able to block domains or content federated from certain platforms. Even with this useful page, having to pour through the giant list for every possible instance to maybe find one that doesn't federate from those platforms, but then who knows what else I'd be sacrificing for that one thing. That's not a useful suggestion by any stretch. Suggesting running an instance is also a ridiculous answer as a solution that requires a significant amount of time, some extra resources, and then a continuous amount of time for maintenance.
You're not far off from just saying "Just don't use the internet. Problem solved!" Do you see why making suggestions that are ridiculous to 'solve' a proportionally smaller problem is rude?
Bro getting so angry over something so meaningless. Touch grass.
You have a strangely visceral reaction to seeing a hashtag, man. I can't solve that for you.
For the record, you can block entire instances from your user account.
Basically every tool you've asked for so far has been available for at least a year now.
I just said I wish I could block it. My "visceral reaction" has only been to your unhelpful "suggestions."
No, Lemmy does not have the available tools to accommodate. Blocking an instance would not prevent this sort of thing since it was posted to this community.
You're not helping and just being antagonistic, whether or not that is your intent. Thanks for the link to the instances page, though it's not helpful for this situation it's still nice to know it's available.
Wow this place really fucking is reddit 😂
