In an age of LLMs, is it time to reconsider human-edited web directories? by riggbeck in c/degoogle@lemmy.ml

It would be sad to go back to walled gardens like AOL, particularly since they were corporate-owned. But a sort of Kite Mark, certifying a site is free of LLMs, would be useful. Then users could choose for themselves.

As the saying goes, "tough shit."

How do I mute/block annoying hashtags? I went into my settings menu and filtered out [#AnnoyingPhrase](https://toad.social/tags/AnnoyingPhrase) should I not have used the #? Is there something else I by riggbeck in c/fediverse@lemmy.ml

Annoying hashtags are legion. Since they're supposed to entice, which #AnnoyingPhrase doesn't do, it's unlikely to have an effect if you filter it.

I use the whack-a-mole approach, and deal individually with each type of annoying hashtag as it shows up. Some generic types can wipe out whole swathes of posts you don't want to see.

I'd suggest a few hashtags, but I don't know what annoys you.
