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?
My blocked community list got significantly shorter when they introduced instance blocking. Got pretty tired of playing furry porn community whackamole.
I have 7 instances blocked. I’m really glad that you can block instances while not blocking the users of those instances. Like I don’t want to see any posts from yiffit but being a furry doesn’t mean your comments aren’t worth reading, ya know?
The other blocked instances are porn and language-specific instances just to clean up my feed
I would love it if blocking all users from an inatance was available as a separate option from the users. I think the majority of my blocked users are from two instances.
Hexbear and lemmy.ml?
The fact that you can so easily guess which two instances proves it would be a useful tool to be able to block all their users.

Yes, those two.
Coincidentally, the furry porn whack-off-a-mole community is not very popular.
Be the change you want to see. (:
I’m this close to blocking ani.social as well because it’s mostly softcore porn. I like Anime, but not like this.
I added that one fast for the same reason. I am not an anime-hater but there’s way too much horny anime getting posted for my liking. Too many -chan characters that look basically identical middle schoolers.
I’m gonna need a list of these ridiculous communities. You know, to block them. /S
