How many communities do you have blocked?
How many communities do you have blocked?
My preferred way to browse here is using All and blocking communities I don't want to see. That way I get exposed to new things I wouldn't seek out on my own (for example: British archaeology)
I accidentally blocked a community while trying to block a user and when I went to unblock it, I saw I had 1250 communities filtered. If I had to guess, 90% are either porn, sports, or anime.
What about you?
You're viewing a single thread.
I've blocked over 1000 communities.
How would you describe your blocklist? Like what categories and what ratio between them?
All things I'm not interested in that tend to fall into these categories:
- hyperlocal geographies
- sports
- specific games
- specific hobbies
- programming languages and other technologies
- porn
- meme groups about subcultures I'm not a part of
- shitposting
- subs where it seems everything is cross posted to another sub
- pretty much all music subs (i'm not here for music)
- pretty much all video subs (i'm not here for videos)
Edit: I've probably also blocked a handful of obscurely named subs that have no description or shit descriptions. Like a sub called grobslafup and the description is "everything related to grobslafup!" As if people know what the obscure thing is but don't know that a sub titled after it is going to be related to it. 🙄
Now I want to know more about grobslafup
