There's not much left after adding everything after linuxmemes!
Why block everything except the few you like, when you could just subscribe to the things you want to see then stay out of /All?
So wtf do you even like?
Judging by their post and comment history, their interests are very, very narrow
So are mine. I'm bummed that most of my hobbies only have a token presence (if any) on Lemmy. I have a decent sized list of blocked communities to make /all a bit less tiresome. But I'm certainly not posting that list and whining about things not being exactly as I want them. I just upvote (mostly), contribute where I feel the need (no, I do not have the spoons to try and carry entire niche communities), and hope one day enough people trickle in that those niches feel less like ghost towns.
In which case simple search and subscribe works well.
So… just subscribe to the ones you like and only browse Subscribed. Probably easier to do a whitelist than a blacklist since apparently you hate 80% of the content here.
You blocked all of Lemmy
I got you OP - my blocklist is now 100s of communities. But I much rather browse all and discover new things, rather than sub to a couple specific communities and never discover anything new.
I wouldn’t call it mildly infuriating though. Its just how I choose to browse
Same. I tend to block all the local communities. Like tbh I don't really care what's happening in like Boston
Me too! I like to browse all to see new communities. The difference is that I don’t find it annoying. When I come across a new community I block it. At this point it’s only once a week or so that I find one.
You should just delete your Lemmy app and exclusively watch Disney movies and play with your legos
Stop trying to tempt me into a healthy lifestyle
Just keep an eye on your marshmallow intake, we don't want you getting the diabetes
I'm surprised this community isn't among them... Actually, no. I guess it makes sense if you dislike everything to the point where you're always at least mildly annoyed.
Good sir I take offense at this suggestion. Pistols at dawn?
I mean that's the point of self-curated feed. Do you want an algorithm or a team of strangers to find and curate what you should consume?
or maybe facebook, instagram, twitter is more up your ally.
I think Xitter / "Truth" Social is probably more your scene.
Yeah, no. Just because one isn't far left doesn't mean they are far right. There is a middle ground you know.
Not to mention truth social is kind of toxic
You could whitelist communities rather than trying to blacklist them.
The larger the Threadiverse grows, the more communities that you might not like that will be out there.
i am a subscribed tab user
This. I occasionally look at all to look for new stuff though
same
I'm torn between blocking a community and being the change Lemmy needs. There are a lot of sensationalists on here and clickbait. I really wanted to bring discourse and niche passion to Lemmy, and some communities are wonderful, but man, there are some bad apples here; a wild West of unmoderated reddit soapboxes and megaphones.
I keep trying to think of ways to help, but solutions start to lean towards reddit style moderation (which pissed off users) or defederation (which will fracture this whole project).
I am hopeful though.
A couple on there that I missed ... on my include list that is. Thanks.
Some of those have one post a week on a good week, so yer obviously trolling.
Came here since the Reddit 3rd party app fiasco. Initially I blocked a load of non English language communities which at the time seemed to fill the All feed. Kept adding to my subscribed communities list then in my app (Voyager after Liftoff stopped being developed) blocked a load of keywords, essentially Trump/US politics related.
Now my Home (subscriptions) feed has some great content. I check out All from time to time to see if I can subscribe to more communities.
Niche communities are still lacking but hopefully that improves over time.
Have you got your language set on your account? (Open settings on browser not app) It should auto filter based on that. I see very little non English stuff. (Small instance though)
I don't really get why you need to block communities. I block users but that is because they comment and post about communism on every single community. Luckily there are only a handful of users who do this.
I do wish Lemmy was a little more politically neutral. I just try to ignore the political stuff. I also choose a instance that isn't focused on politics.
why? because you don't want to see certain things in your feed. people come hwre for various things. some people come here to mentally relax, so they don't want to hear about negative topics like wars or people Fighting all the time. other people just are not interested in certain topics or posts but have them flood their feed.
example: i come here for relaxing mentally and to see posts about topics I'm interested in. so I don't want to see negative stuff like causalities in wars, hearing people complain what bad things they experienced this day, what stuff has gone wrong in their life and other negative stuff. another example is lemmynsfw where I don't want to see males showing their genitals to me since I'm interested in women, not guys. so i block communitys who are about such things.
short: because people don't want ro see certain stuff. that's why there is a block function. lemmy without a block function wouldn't be useable since you get flooded with tons of posts you aren't interested in by default without any blocks.
I do it so that I can browse c/all too
Those sure are some rookie block numbers.
Those are rookie numbers.
My community block list is about 450 items long and the one for users is even longer.
