One of the most annoying parts about That Place, and also Lemmy, is curating your feed by blocking communities you have no interest in seeing.
I am not a sports person, so I need to block each sports team manually when I see it, and also each individual sport. It would be so much better if I could just block an instance called "Lemmy.sports".
I'm glad Lemmy.nsfw is the default porn instance, I think we need to see more of this.
I know it's too late to change at this point, but I think a feature to catagorise different communities would be nice, so I could block "sports" if I wanted to.
Alternatively, maybe down the line see a feature to import a community to a new instance without users having to migrate manually.
You're viewing a single thread.
Huh... so personally I subscribe to communities that I actually do want to see, and then just use my subscribed feed.
I think that seems a lot easier.
I like that idea, but at the moment, Lemmy needs engagement with up-and-coming communities, so I want to boost content I think is good, not just from communities I'm explicitly interested in.
Also it's a good way to find new communities.
Sensible. Definitely going to come with consequences though, I do not think it was intended to be used that way. Should work though, with a whole lot of hassle.
Good luck.
That's how I used reddit. But kbin is still too inactive for that still (for the communities I primarily engaged with). At least I get a few dozen threads in a day now instead of a couple of thread in a day on my sub list like I did a few weeks ago (mostly from more activity, but also subscribed to some more communities). Hope it'll get to the point where I rarely use all soon though.
You gotta dig through our stuff too. I'm on lemmy.world, signed up to, it sounds like, as many kbin mags as you are. But I've got 10x that much coming from lemmy.
You should be able to sub to stuff from both.
I'm subbed to 34 community, majority aren't on kbin (they're on various lemmy instances). Think part of the problem is a lot of the communities I regulared on reddit had a lot of people go to raddle instead of fediverse because like 2 mods (on different subreddits) heard lemmy = tankies and pushed people to raddle instead.
