I guess they haven't discovered the button to block communities?

My feed is quite nice after blocking the stuff that doesn't appeal to me.

The problem is that there are so many porn communities that I have to block one every time I open Lemmy.

Create two accounts, one with NSFW content turned off, and one with it on.

That sucks just as much lol

That's why we need some 3rd party apps to make swapping amounts seamless.

Or just make a NSFW-less account on one instance and a NSFW-ful account on a different instance. You don't even need to log out of one to switch to the other. Just change the URL slightly.

Same. Block is a key feature. That said, I’m actually fascinated at how many furry communities there are. You’d think blocking c/furry would take care of 90% of the problem, but who knew c/MidCenturyYiffsOnAnEamesChair had such a dedicated following.

c/MidCenturyYiffsOnAnEamesChair

(It isn't really, but I do like those Eames chairs...)

Those are probably just newbies. My Reddit account is about 12 years old, and Lemmy right now reminds me of the good days of Reddit. It's ramping up that way.

I think it's great. Read about philosophy, memes, and get the occasional booba in-between. It's good Internetting.

Reminds me of old school slashdot. A mix of techies, skeptics and libertarians. Luckily, the Demon Haunted World quotes stuck over the Ayn Rand junk. Last time I went on slashdot, it seems the libertarians took over. Never thought I'd see anti vaxxers there.
