My preferred way to browse here is using All and blocking communities I don’t want to see. That way I get exposed to new things I wouldn’t seek out on my own (for example: British archaeology)

I accidentally blocked a community while trying to block a user and when I went to unblock it, I saw I had 1250 communities filtered. If I had to guess, 90% are either porn, sports, or anime.

What about you?

    That, plus all the obvious propaganda, dogmatic echo chambers, and people who misspell stuff voluntarily, or make extremely basic mistakes (“your wrong”, “its that”, “there logic”, etc) more than once.

      Glad I’m not the only one ruthlessly blocking people for petty reasons. I deliberately go into controversial threads just to find the “fuck X”, ACAB, eat the rich etc. comments only to block the users. If that’s your style of commenting then I’m not interested in what else you’ve got to say. I don’t mind disagreement. I’m simply just not interested in seeing that kind of low effort shitposting on my feed.
