Why YSK: You may dislike, disagree with, or be tired of certain communities and don’t want them in your feed.

    It’s a decent bandaid, but I don’t want to block all NSFW content, I just want better controls around it so I’m not fighting an onslaught of creative new community names around anal whenever I open the site or an app.

    I could indeed join another instance, but figuring out which instances are federated to which other instances is a bit of a slog from a user perspective unless there’s a big searchable graph available somewhere (which is entirely possible, I’m still very ignorant).

    And who knows, maybe the apps will get better and be able to grab a local-only feed for each instance you have an account on and can patch together a feed from them all mixed together, and that would get me close to a workable solution for the long run.

      I suppose you could also sit down and subscribe to every community you want. Then used the subscribed feed. Kinda kills discovery for new communities though
