It has occurred to me that Lemmy has a setting where you can filter out posts by bots, but the match threads will be now handled by a bot, so you might not see them.
Current match thread is here: https://lemmy.world/post/20562325?scrollToComments=true
couldn't find a setting that let's you whitelist only the match thead bot, so unfortunately, you will have to toggle to "Show bot accounts"
That's a good idea! Will have to look into that toggle but it also probably depends on which Lemmy client you're using.
Been gone for a few months, just got Reddit sickness. I want you to know that I have the utmost respect for the work you’ve continuously put into making RedDevils functional on Lemmy. I’ll try my best to keep up, in here.
