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.
673 communities are blocked. Which, to be honest, is a hell of a lot more than I thought I had blocked. I thought I might have around 150 communities blocked. Most of them are sports, sports teams, video games I have no care for, weird ones, apps, gender communities, and furry oriented communities. I get around the porn ones by not having NSFW enabled.
A lot. Not sure how many. Hundreds. Lots of the porn communities for shit that I’m not interested in. Most of the vegan communities. Anime and furry porn, twinks and ladyboys, any women/girls with penises, bondage porn, any community that’s just an endless stream of pissing and moaning, tankies and fascists, bimbos and anything that glorifies plastic in female bodies, anything to do with unhealthy bodies, proana, etc. some local communities where I don’t live, a fucking baseball communities that posts 100 times a day and lots of team communities. Lots of communities on .ML
I browse all so that I see new communities as they emerge then block them if I’m not interested.
About 330. A crap ton of porn stuff, furry, bondage, etc. Several non-English communities. Operating system related stuff like Linux or android. A few “normal” communities that are on instances that don’t allow much dissent or contrary opinion.
Porn, anime, sports, a bunch of video games I don’t play, and some spammy or obnoxious communities too. Oh, and foreign languages I don’t speak (until we get built-in translation)
