I don't block anything.
I view subscribed day-to-day, and browse through All when I want to find new communities to sub to.
There's all kinds of shit in All that's not for me, and that's... how it's supposed to be?

A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected].
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try [email protected] or [email protected]

I do this but I block stuff I won’t have any interest in ever like programmer humor, furry this and that, weird porn. I know I won’t ever subscribe or find anything I want to see in some communities
[email protected] is the only one. I don't care what Reddit does. I couldn't care less. I don't want to read about it.
It got a lot easier when I blocked whole instances. No more talkie, fashion, qanon level bullshit. No more weird and gross porn or AI porn.
Can't seem to find this option in Liftoff. Would love to block lemmygrad

I just block mostly communities that are not in my mother tongue except this one and a few others
Also the adhd community, it reeks of virtue signaling
I blocked all nsfw content. I haven't blocked any specific communities. It was just a check box when I joined lemmy.
None, so far.
None, I just block some bots I don't find useful and that's mostly it.
Only a handful, if there is a way to block non English speaking ones.... I keep getting German or Dutch

I have blocked exactly 10 magazines, all non-English.
Upwards of 200, a lot of stuff I'm not interested in or "main" communities
Been thinking about the Usenet days when everything was built out as a hierarchy like alt.sports.falcons.gogogo
It would be nice if it was still organized like this. It could make it easier to block entire hierarchies you’re not interested in, like sports.

Communities: Just 196 and languages I don't understand.
Instances: exploding-heads (probably a couple more to follow)
Lemmy.world blocked exploding heads at the instance level, so I don't need to worry about them thankfully. Before they were blocked by our admin I had pretty much every community of theirs I saw blocked.
