Question to people who block communities, how many? What's your criteria? I, uhhh, block a measly 586 communities.
My criteria is as follows:
- nuked nearly all meme ones
- nuked meta ones for instances outside of mine, as I find my ingerence unfair
- nuked meta ones for countries I've no past with and no interest in making future with
- nuked soft porn / porn ones from .world
- nuked duplicate communities from instances which block many instances, so I get most diversity of opinions since they crosspost anyway
- blocked AI art communities
- generally anything related to AI, crypto and other topics I don't have any interest in
- blocking all/near-all image and video oriented communities, because I'm here for engagement, not browsing images and most definitely not for videos
I'm very pro curating my own experience, as you may see. It's quite slow, but at least I seldom get things I don't want to check out, apart from some posts from technology.
I'm not a furry, I just wish I'd see any gay posts at all. I assume .ml has no gay content as it blocks nsfw instances and I assume gay topics may be on nsfw instances. :/
