I'm very much awaiting a time when users can block specific instances. I still don't want to check the option to hide NSFW content, because I do want to see NSFW content that may show up on non-porn communities. Just not really interested in seeing so much porn in All.

You can check on your settings page, btw, in the Blocks tab - count quickly with Ctrl+F.

On Reddit, I found myself swapping back and forth all the time. Sometimes I want hyper-specific content just related to the things I’m interested in, just because some of that stuff is so niche it’d never show up in r/all. But then other times I’d want to see what was going on with the broader Reddit “society”, what new drama was afoot or what new weird-ass trend had people started latching onto. I liked having a clear division between the two and specifically didn’t subscribe to subreddits that regularly showed up in r/all. I rarely blocked anything except for users whom I specifically hated their stuff.

On lemmy I pretty much have to do All by default, that’s the only way to do it if I want to see new stuff at all.
