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?

    I have two accounts. One has all the more serious news type stuff blocked and the other is unfiltered. Its nice to be able to take a break from reading about war and disease. I get most of that news from Mastadon anyway.

      That’s a good idea. I’ve blocked so much almost all I get is depressing news. They need to let you export blocked lists. Mines so long it’s probably worth something.
