I seriously. I’m for realiously. I got like 8 different furry subs in my block list and filtered out terms like ‘yiff’ etc. You’d think the algorithm would have picked up that I’m not interested in that shit but I still can’t scroll a half hour without a wolf boner adorning my screen.

I know I can simply block all NSFW content but that’d just be throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

I know it's because I don't have many, but my subscriptions are pretty much dead (somewhat niche stuff). More general stuff (like this comm that is not hard to find anyway due to activity) feels like filler and some other comms I might visit might have stuff I don't want to commonly see (like new accounts made for blatant self-promotion).

Relates to @zxqwas@lemmy.world and @whaleross@lemmy.world (why someone would be browsing /all)

A lot of mines are too and that's ok with me. I mean, I don't need new/fresh content every minute, or every day. For me it matters a lot more to not be annoyed by low quality content and not waste my time with those. Time I can then spend elsewhere/doing something else than scroll ;)
