Hello! My smartphone is dying, so I’ll soon have to buy a new one. I’d like my new phone to have pure Android, without all the apps that manufactures install.

I’m not sure where to ask this so I started here: here: Is there a Lemmy client that has a filter. I want to hide posts from particular accounts. Like anyone for hexbear, for example. I know I can set up my own instance, but that’s more work than I want right now. I was hoping someone knew a client that could do this.

I couldn’t find a github “issues” or a bugtracker....

I run into a need for this type of software frequently but I don’t know what it’s called or if it exists.
