Is Lemmy going to be one of the only places we can go to get uncensored content? Even the mainstream UK and US news outlets are filtering things.

Filter to show just posts with photo or video or text (lemmy.world)
 

I remember there used to be an option like this on the Reddit app..

On a post that contains a particular content type you could filter to show just that content type of posts.

On posts with a photo hit a filter option to show only posts that have a photo.

On posts with a video, hit the filter option and you can see just posts with a video.

I think there were options for the format where posts just contained text also.

The filter was available directly from the options on the post.

Is this a feature in Boost already?

In the end people will realise they can not trust any media served to them. But it's just going to take time for people to realise... And while they are still blindly consuming it, they will be taken advantage of.

If it goes this road... Social media could be completely undermined. It could become the downfall of these platforms and do everyone a favour by giving them their lives back after endless doom scrolling for years.
