I purged world news from my feeds years ago. I have no idea what's going and I love it.
Here's my filter list if you want it:
israel, iran, cybertruck, north korea, tesla, israeli, russia, belarus, palestine, palestinian, trump, biden, rogan, ukraine, china, politics, democrat, republican, america, usa, government, law, war, conflict, weapon, vance, biden, harris, election, kamala, dnc, rnc, conflict, tensions, elon, musk, greene, boebert, soldier, military, bomb, attack, conflict
There's really not much that slips by this list in tandem with my community block list. Life on the internet is much more peaceful now.
Yep, influencers want you constantly connected to the doom-sayers.
At one time getting the weekly newspaper was sufficient.
Then CNN happened with cable.

Nothing is beamed directly to your phone, it’s a broadcast, so waves n stuff.

Its not a bad thing to close lemmy 5 mins after you open it. There's a whole world outside of the internet.

Exactly! Without the news, what am I supposed to do, look at cute cat and dog memes all day? Uh, no, there are only a finite amount of those on lemmy..

I did the same and would absolutely recommend this.
Don't look for news on social media (best to not be on social media if that's possible). Get news and content via RSS and get an app that allows you to blacklist keywords.
Got any suggestions on how to set that up? I've known about RSS for a long time, I just never really understood it, I guess.

What device are you going to use it on? I'll presume Android is most likely.
Best app for FOSS in my opinion is Read You (on f-droid), but this doesnt allow blacklisting words.
Best for easy setup + setting up filters is Pluma (free on Play store). Once you're in it, you press + to add content and can search for whatever you want.
Most sites support RSS and if you candidate find it from within the app then you can go get the RSS link from the webpage.... But if you're just getting into it then try what I've suggested above first and take it from there.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]But underneath it's just unicast to your phone, no?
But anyway, beamed directly it may be, it's called beamforming.
In the world of 5G, this is the act of focusing a wireless signal in a specific direction. Compared to simply sending a signal across a wide area, beamforming requires more sophisticated antenna technology.
[...] Beamforming technology, on the other hand, sends a precise and concentrated signal right to your smartphone. It is more deliberate and intentional with its delivery method.Edit: Forgot source of quote: https://surecall.com/surecall-cell-phone-signal-booster-blog/5g-explained-beamforming-dss-in-plain-english/

Me, tired of staring at medium rectangle all day, finally going home to turn on the big rectangle, and watch tiny rectangle.
One gives cortisol, the other 2 give dopamine and serotonin, respectively.

I think they meant the phone is beaming the horrific news to their face which is inches away, not that the horrific news is beamed directly to their phone

It turns out you can just not do that, I’m moving away from my phone in general since the internet sucks and I don’t see the point anymore and I’ve been a lot happier for it. Nothing is stopping anyone from just not doomscrolling

This is why I primarily use my phone to eye fuck the nastiest hardcore porn into my brain. If it's all going to shit I might as well be gooned the fuck out
