There’s not much left after adding everything after linuxmemes!
Why block everything except the few you like, when you could just subscribe to the things you want to see then stay out of /All?
I really want to do this, but it would be impractical to go through the thousands of communities available and decide if I like it or not. It also doesn’t account for new ones which means I’d have to keep going through the list and look for the ones I haven’t looked at yet. Therefore, I’ve just done it Reddit-style where I look at what’s the top posts of the day and see if I like what I see.
You’re basically saying “Blocklists are too hard and white lists are even worse, why can’t the software just know what I like?”
How should it know what you like?
So… just subscribe to the ones you like and only browse Subscribed. Probably easier to do a whitelist than a blacklist since apparently you hate 80% of the content here.
I don’t really get why you need to block communities. I block users but that is because they comment and post about communism on every single community. Luckily there are only a handful of users who do this.
I do wish Lemmy was a little more politically neutral. I just try to ignore the political stuff. I also choose a instance that isn’t focused on politics.
There are also the communities like worldnews@lemmy.ml that seem okay at first but then you realize the mods are tankies.
As a rule of thumb avoid Lemmy[.]ml
Generally a good idea but they still have many of the biggest communities.
So wtf do you even like?
Unfortunately, I still have to use Reddit for stuff like r/RISCV, r/nattyorjuice, and r/NVDA_stock, so the only thing I come to Lemmy for (hopefully only right now!) is memes.
Blocking is the boring way. Shit post until they ban you.
