Click the 3 dot button on a post. Select filter. You can filter by user, community, or entire instance.

Look at who you responded to. It’s one of the usernames you pinged. Just saying 🙂

Fanny_B already set up a game bot for the baseball communities. If you run any other sports maybe check to see if he could help you out!

Is there a way to ensure it only posts links and not OC?

Same - I keep getting a verification expired notification but the page never loads.

This is a tough one for me. If it was just the API changes I probably would have been hesitant but would have returned. As long as old.reddit still worked I probably would have used that.
BUT… the AMA spez did hurt those chances. He could have avoided dragging the Apollo guy through the mud. So as long as he is there, tough to imagine I will be going back.

Time will help that at least. The reason google links to reddit is there were great discussions there. With time lemmy (or another federated instance) will likely take its place.
I went to results for reddit because I could see people interacting about the question. This looks to have that same allure.
