I’d love to browse “all” but so far my experience has just been a slew of porn, languages I don’t speak, and other stuff I have zero interest in seeing in my lemmy-based doomscrolling.

None of it is anything I think beehaw should defderate from. It’s not wrong or against beehaw’s standards. But for my idle time, it’s just noise that gets in the way of finding anything else interesting.

I did some googling and it looks like this sort of thing is being looked at for lemmy as a whole, but I was hoping someone may have a trick to do it without the lemmy system supporting it directly.

On desktop, I could easily add a userscript to remove the instance domains, but not so much on mobile apps.

Am I alone in this frustration?

    I think my big irritation is that it’s super distracting to keep hitting block on the seemingly infinite supply of communities on lemmynsfw ;D

    But it’s also annoying that none of the apps (lemmy pwa included) actively clear the feed of your newly blocked user/community.

    I enjoy scrolling All to find new and interesting things, and that’s how I built my sub list on the oldsite. It’s just frustratingly difficult to filter signal from noise at the moment.

      I’m very late to this post, but Voyager for Lemmy (currently at wefwef.app) has a block server alongside the block community action, which might fit your needs.
