seems like it's 97% memes or news articles. i love a good shitpost but this site would be even better with in depth nuanced discussion -- especially with a higher quality userbase than reddit

Are you browsing by all? Subscribe to what you are interested in and just browse that feed.

That way you only get the stuff you want and can target it to directly that (maybe you want imaginary mermaids, but not monsters?)

That works when you have your profile set up,as it were. But communities I want are still absent or being formed, and my subscriptions list is not complete,so I still browse by all to get wind of new ones as they pop up. I cannot wait to retreat from all back to a curated list though.
