Could be worth looking into Misophonia. Basically it’s an irrational anger response to specific noises that vary person to person. I don’t know enough about it to say how it can be dealt with, but it may be something you could find a specialist for.

Those calves. Dang.
To be clear, I’m not saying that OP or anyone else shouldn’t miss what they had on Reddit. There are lots of things Lemmy won’t replicate or explicitly can’t. It was more a comment on the common complaints I see about how this community or that poster or this content is “dominating” their feed (which I discerned hints of in OP’s post), when it’s exceedingly easy to just remove the offending content from said feed. Will it 100% solve everyone’s problems? No. But it will almost certainly improve their experience concerning those complaints.
If you’re uncomfortable with the content you’re seeing, you should be more active in moderating that. Block users, block communities, stick to your subscription feed, etc. People in these spaces so often seem to resign themselves to having to deal with content they don’t like when they can absolutely change it on their own.
Take more autonomy in curating your experience here and you’ll have a much better time.
Some things just completely skew your home page with just a single viewing. I am very careful with my watch history, only watching one off stuff from other sites in a private window. That seems to work well.
Go into the viewing history and wipe it. Then maybe view some more normal stuff to set it on a good track. That should give a good reset for her, though it wouldn’t stop her from just looking it up again, of course.
Everyone has “custom” pronouns. Some just match possible preconceived notions about them.
Far Cry 3 was so frustratingly dumb and yet so popular. The gameplay was fine, but everyone was blowing up about the stupid ass sub-villain with his Philosophy 101 ”zingers" in “White, suburban YA saves ‘savages’ from themselves with horrendous war crimes” the game. It was really irritating.
As others have stated, it’s very little to do with being “prudes” and much more with being tired of horny anonymous posters just being horny. If it were something informative, that’s a whole other thing.
Those are findings specifically from industrial areas, and specifies that it is levels over 75db that are dangerous for the most sensitive individuals (younger people). I’m not sure what the db exposure for a service on one’s yard would be, but I doubt it’s on the same level as working in a factory.
How would one find this? Is it just a console command?
There’s finally an open github issue that seems to be acknowledged, but it’ll be some time before this feature (if ever) ever gets implemented.
Fwiw, the devs seem quite open to (even directly requesting) people coding features they want and having them added into the main code in future versions. So if anyone is able and willing to make a working version of that for Lemmy, it could be added quite soon, really.

Oh, there’s plenty of toxicity on Lemmy, but it’s been fairly successfully isolated to the offending Instances due to active admins. Hopefully that keeps up.
When you’re selecting languages, try holding ctrl when clicking the ones you want. It should allow you to select more than one.
I don’t find the “need” / fomo to visit
I wouldn’t say that’s a bad thing. Reddit is purposefully designed to hold your attention, just like every other corporate social media platform. They have a monetary incentive to do so. Lemmy doesn’t, and hopefully never will.
Obviously not. There are none.
Gonna be another spike in the next week, so probably not soon, but it will die down.
Thanks for at least linking to the best rendition of it :)
Not really interested in anything that even remotely mirrors “engagement” driven algorithms seen on other sites. It’s predictably resulted in siloing of information and the explosion of “rage-bait” content that’s pretty much taken over. Lemmy being different than that is a boon, not a deficit.
