Make use of the block function. Lemmy makes it super easy to block assholes and it just makes life more pleasant. In ~2 years, I've amassed a block list of 39 users. It turns out that the vast majority of shittiness comes from a very small number of people.
Blocking a total of 6 people was enough to drastically change Lemmy for me
I've blocked a few users who's spammed daily posts, but for me as someone who mainly browses /all blocking communities has been clutch.
