Feels like half my experience on Lemmy is blocking "communities" from those instances. Hexbear, Lemmygrad, explodingheads... constant propaganda, low quality political and even fully racist memes with tons of upvotes polluting my feed. It's not enjoyable and I'm starting to wonder if it's worth it even for me, let alone my less tech savvy friends.
I get federation, decentralized social media, etc. I love the idea. Would be amazing to socialize without a corporation looking over my shoulder. But seriously those instances and their propaganda have pretty much killed my excitement about it.
... you only have to set up those preferences once, friend. Your argument is like saying you don't want to eat anymore because picking up food with your hand is tiresome. ๐
I can set my preferences once or a million times and Lemmy will still be ruined by propaganda
