In my personal opinion, this site is completely unusable without heavy content filtering. Just being picky about which communities to follow and users to block isn’t enough.
That said, I realize I might be in the minority on this, so I’m curious what others are doing to preserve their sanity.
The basic blocking system.
Feels bad to use, though, blocking whole communities. I wish there was a simple “mute” button. But if there is I haven’t found it.
Not sure if the algorithm for scaled could be better to try and find new communities, otherwise I usually check hot/subscribed first which helps filter it.
