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?
Was finding it annoying too, so instead of scrolling and blocking things as I happened upon them, I pulled up lists of things to block by searching for keywords of stuff I know I’m disinterested in.
It isn’t ideal but it made it a lot faster and less fiddly. Unfortunately it doesn’t seem possible yet to search by instance name, so I couldn’t use this method to pull up a list of every community on instances with a high prevalence of stuff I don’t want to see.
For keeping porn out, go into settings and deselect “show NSFW content”. I don’t think Beehaw has NSFW content, but this setting should keep a lot of it out of your “All” feed (if it has been correctly marked).
I’m considering just making a script to get a list of communities from an instance and submit them to my block list automatically. Heavily rate limited, of course.
