I used Reddit for nothing but memes and niche technical content, so I hope we can eventually get the same here on Lemmy.

    My block list is entirely made up of right-wing propaganda, SJW blowhards, anime, and foreign language communities.

    Makes things so much easier to scroll, but it takes a lot of time to get here.

      right-wing propaganda, SJW blowhards, anime, and foreign language communities.

      What are they so I can block them too?

        It’s a LONG list. I don’t know how to put it all together aside from screenshotting the entire thing.

      Not OP, but every now and then I will view all to discover communities I may want to subscribe to. Blocking ones that appear a lot in the ‘all’ feed but are of no interest to me (memes, anime,…) sanitises the list a bit

        Fair point. I do the same, but I’be blocked onlt a handful of communities. I like watching the weird stuff float by in all.

    My Reddit app had hundreds of keywords, domains and subs in the filters by the time I left Reddit. You seem to be getting some criticism in the comments here, but I think what you’re doing here is good. It’s up to you to curate the content you want to see, and instead of raging in a community to complain about low effort posts or spam or bots, if it works out better to block them then you should.
