I kinda wish related communities shared a common instance (aussie.zone)

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.

There are multile !asklemmy and multiple !technology and multiple !worldnews and multiple !fediverse... the list goes on.

You really think they're all just gonna create an instance together? They're seperate because they WANT to be. That's the fediverse for you. Not to mention that these instances would STILL have their own individual communities; which you would likely see across your feed at some point if you view "all" posts and not just local or subscribed. It's easier for you to just block them and call it a day.
