An update to how many boring, repetitive communities I need to block to make Lemmy enjoyable

There's not much left after adding everything after linuxmemes!

So wtf do you even like?

Judging by their post and comment history, their interests are very, very narrow

So are mine. I'm bummed that most of my hobbies only have a token presence (if any) on Lemmy. I have a decent sized list of blocked communities to make /all a bit less tiresome. But I'm certainly not posting that list and whining about things not being exactly as I want them. I just upvote (mostly), contribute where I feel the need (no, I do not have the spoons to try and carry entire niche communities), and hope one day enough people trickle in that those niches feel less like ghost towns.

In which case simple search and subscribe works well.

Unfortunately, I still have to use Reddit for stuff like r/RISCV, r/nattyorjuice, and r/NVDA_stock, so the only thing I come to Lemmy for (hopefully only right now!) is memes.

I mean if you start a RISCV community on Lemmy I'd show up. I'm sure a bunch of people would; seems like a logical extension of the FOSS movement to the hardware world.

so the only thing I come to Lemmy for ... is memes.

But you're blocking so many cool meme communities.

I personally block memes because i am blind and cant see them. There are just so many in "All" but i browse all after my subscribed to see if anything catches my attention. I have found good communities to sub to from all, but so many memes.

There’s a community for NVIDIA stock? Tf do they even talk about?
