I don’t know if this will work, and I’m going to have to try it, but Mastodon has a feature when looking at someone’s profile to ignore boosts. My understanding of how Lemmy federated to other platforms is that the comments appear as boosts by the community, so turning on that option might do what you want.
(This is also why I stopped following communities through Mastodon, but I only thought of the no-boost idea just now when I saw your comment!)
Edit: It doesn’t seem to work. The top-level posts don’t show up in Mastodon either, which makes sense, because now that I look at it again, they’re also federated as boosts.
@KelsonV@startrek Next version of Mastodon will feature “exclusive lists”. Lists that will not appear in your timeline and clutter it. That will definitely be the way to go for Lemmy/Kbin
Finally! That’s one of the things that’s made it hard to deal with following a lot of people on Mastodon (to the point that I almost set up new alts just to categorize who I was following!)
