I’ve done that and it’s significantly better because of that feature. Speaking of, is it possible to migrate blocklists from one account to another?

skisnow@lemmy.ca 2 days agoDon’t forget you can block communities that irritate you. I’ve got plenty blocked that aren’t even things I’m opposed to, but just don’t want my feed to be full of.

Yes, but you don’t want to lock yourself in an echo chamber either. You want to be as close to reality as possible, at least I do. Though I realize that’s niche federated internet community is a bad place for that. But this is the reason I don’t block communities. I used to be on lemm.ee for that reason, but it got shut down. I have no problem reading communist propaganda and deciding for myself if it’s garbage. But I have problem with censorship. Though bullying and abuse is where I draw the line. But what I see is even without algorithm based feeds, people are still polarized. Possibly because, like me, people with moderate views tend to not comment or engage, while polar opposite groups want you to firmly choose sides and denounce the other side or else you are garbage. In summary, I think it’s depressing because reality is currently depressing. But it’s unrealistic to just pretend everything is just fine and be happy.
