I am not interested in seeing posts from Reddit so I want to hide any posts that are automatically mirrored on Lemmy from Reddit
Is there a clever way to do this, that won't limit me to only viewing my subscription feed or blocking individual communities?
I'd rather not add Reddit as a filtered term, as I don't mind posts about Reddit, as long as they were made on Lemmy - it's the feed of mirrored posts that I'd rather not have to see
I am using Voyager app

Add it to filtered websites?

This is what I’ve done. If the link in the OP links to Reddit, I don’t see it. Also X. Any of those Epstein sites. I’m not for it. And’s that’s been my solution.

You can try blocking instances made specifically to mirror reddit. I think there was one called lemmit, I don't know if it's still around

Fellow Voyager user here: have you considered looking at the posts in question to see if they are consistently made using the same bot account? Blocking a bot account could be a good way to block what you’re looking for.
Or perhaps block posts with links pointing to reddit.com? I block links to several different domains through Voyager, and really my only complaint is that the domains are listed in order of when you blocked them, not alphabetical order.

Thanks! Those are some great ideas!

Block the account making the posts, it's a bot account and that's all it does

I feel like I'm developing some kind of reading disability lately; I read the title as
Otherwise I second the other posts about blocking the bots you don't want, worked well for me so far.
