seems like it’s 97% memes or news articles. i love a good shitpost but this site would be even better with in depth nuanced discussion – especially with a higher quality userbase than reddit

    No, I’ve blocked more communities since coming here than I would prefer. Just scrolling the All Hot feed sometimes looking for new stuff is really annoying. Theres an especially weird problem with hentai. I’ve blocked I swear like 40 communities, and they all could have been one single community, bcz when you click into the community, it’s one person posting over and over.

      My blocked user list is not nearly as long as my blocked community list, both slow my experience, and needlessly tax infrastructure I don’t pay for. And the issue really limits the number of migrants from other sites I think.

      We need better tools. We need a better communal understanding that you don’t need to make a new page for every subset of classification if post type possible. Also I am unable to block the russia.sopul or whatever it is, which… honestly creeps me out and gives me a lot of pause for thought if I am safe using this site at all. If basic functionality like blocking a community can be tampered with by a community, I don’t want to be here tbh.

      Edit: can anyone else block: https://lemmy.world/c/russia@sopuli.xyz. ?

      I finally got sick of it and just disabled nsfw entirely. Spent way too much time.blocking porn I wasn’t interested in.
