    Is Lemmy just not showing me sports content? I don’t like sports at all and this would bother me if it was constant, but I only see the occasional sports post.

      It was pretty bad for me until I got most of them filtered. There’s a com for every single team, every single league, and more.

      Not quite as prolific as, say, Linux or porn. But there’s a lot of them.

            Same. If there is a com for every team, why can’t I find the ones for my teams? I get that that my teams probably have few subscribers so they’re not ever likely to show up on ALL. But even when I actively look for em, I can’t find em. I’m still new to this platform so I have much to learn.

            Which sports in particular are you looking for? Most of the popular sports and teams have fledgling communities

          Are you browsing Hot? I use Top 12H

          They didn’t annoy me that much but I saw a lot of them and was being proactive about cleaning up my feed. On reddit, anime was BY FAR my most blocked type of sub but with sports in second. On here it’s sports > porn > memes

        Yeah. I think some get ahead of themselves, lemmy isn’t big enough enough to support the splintering.

      Same — I don’t recall a single sports-related post — not even a meme. Maybe my instance already defederated from all the home servers of these communities (I think that’s how it works?).
