At least in the meantime, before we add that, you can block the memes community. I've done that and my feed is a lot better.
What I have actually done is, since I have my own instance for just me, I created another account which subscribed to the communities that drown out the others, but then unsubscribe from them on my main account. That way they still get federated to my instance, because I want to see them sometimes. Then when I want to see those communities, I view All. And when I don't want to see them, I view subscribed.
It's kind of silly, but it's perfectly fine as a temporary solution.
I've done similar - I have three accounts on three instances and they each have different focuses. This account is meme/shit posting (since Lemmy.ml has access to all of it) and my accounts on smaller instances have the noisy communities blocked so I can see my interests.
