I just want a news feed that doesnt constantly anger me and convince me to argue. I'd wanted to block TwoXChromosomes on reddit forever because I wasnt its target audience and got nothing out of it. So I'm personally enjoying actually getting some control over my echo chamber for once

Edit: Also, nuanced takes I disagree with? I dont block those. Its the batshit/extremist ones that I block, I dont feel they are really adding much to my life anyways

Guess what. I never saw two chromosomes unless I browsed by r/all. You have an ability to curate what you see, both here and on reddit. Blocking and defederating achieve nothing. Unless of course it's an echo chamber you want to live in.

Lmao, I like how you started off your counterpoint talking about what blocking and defederating achieve, and then end your point with "it achieves nothing" as if that erases what you just said. I'm using blocking and defederating to curate my feed. While people are entitled to their opinion, it doesnt mean their opinion is correct, nor are they entitled to have me listen to them.
