I’d love to know if my enormous blocklist of instances and communities is unusual or if most people end up curating their global feeds massively to keep them interesting. Anime, porn, US-specific politics, authoritarian-friendly politics, furries, wojak-style barrel-scraping memes - I don’t want to downvote most of these just because they’re not my bag, but I suspect I end up with a tiny fraction of the total Lemmy+Piefed content.
I tend to block at the user and community level, my only instance block is feddit.de and that’s only because I don’t speak German and those folks are such prolific posters it felt like I was touring central Europe every time I’d go to the All feed.
Blocking what you’re not interested in is the second best part of Lemmy, IMO.
If you had a hundred small Reddits talking to each other like one big Reddit, oh and with fewer fascists and no ads.
What would win in a fight, a hundred Lemmy-sized Reddits or one Reddit-sized Lemmy?
