My preferred way to browse here is using All and blocking communities I don’t want to see. That way I get exposed to new things I wouldn’t seek out on my own (for example: British archaeology)

I accidentally blocked a community while trying to block a user and when I went to unblock it, I saw I had 1250 communities filtered. If I had to guess, 90% are either porn, sports, or anime.

What about you?

    I mostly just block users who post awful shit. But I have blocked a lot of niche Linux communities just because they were taking up most of the page and while I appreciate Linux, I’m not a super hardcore fanboy.

      Oh yeah, I didn’t think about the Linux communities…I do have a lot of those distro-specific ones blocked. And a bunch of communities for software I don’t use
