I don't mind politics, but I do mind:

  • AI generated images
  • Porn
  • Anime models (all the "moe" stuff)
  • Something that combines above (like thirsty AI-generated anime models)
  • (RSS) bots that post links but there's never any discussion in the threads
  • Non-English content that I can’t read or local content that doesn't apply to me
  • Games I don't play (anymore) or will never play

Is there an easier way to curate content? Browsing "new" is like whack-a-mole.

Do you have to block communities? I thought you could just not join them to avoid their content.

If you browse by "subscribed", you only see the communities you have joined. I sometimes browse "new" just to see what's happening now, and this shows all posts from any community (you haven't blocked). The sorting method "Active" is posts from 1-2 days ago and the content in "Hot" stays about the same throughout the day.

Thank you, I did not know that.
