I have over 100 communities in my block list. I scroll through All and if I see a community over and over that I truly don’t care about I just add it to the block list. Scrolling through All becomes a way to find new communities I like instead of being 500 posts I don’t care about
huh, so like a reverse subscription feed curation. Definitely an interesting take I hadn’t considered but would probably want an alt for that purpose as you can’t “undo” it that easily like you can switch between subscription feed and all feed. Could be a nice experience when I’m just in a viewing mood (bathroom, work breaks, etc) and not really looking to interact.

Nice that’s also exactly how I browse Lemmy, so much variety compared to only focusing on communities you subscribed to.

It’s funny. I look at blocking as some king of moral judgment against the community, and so I don’t end up using it to shape my feed due to annoyance.
But, man, would I like to browse all without a million 196 posts.
Maybe it’s time I start.
