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.
Blahaj modding and a few manual user blocks, plus blocking communities I’m uninterested in. I haven’t blocked any terms, because I don’t like the idea of missing posts that happen to match one keyword and potentially missing a post I’m interested in.
