I’ve been here since the great Reddit Exodus and have seen some good and some bad.

What have you liked and disliked about being on Lemmy so far?

Do you see your usage going up or down?

      Really, wow, because the amount of furry porn and femboy memes I’ve had to block on Lemmy is astounding. It’s fucking everywhere here.

        Isn’t that mostly on one or two instances, that you can block in your settings as lemmy.ca is 19.3?

            Interesting, I block most of the memes community so I guess I’m protected

      Or naked women.

      If there was a distinction between “this is porn” and “this contains content/language which may not be appropriate in a work environment” that could solve the problem. But getting the Fediverse to agree on where that line is, and to get everyone to comply might not be possible.

      Like I understand that some people like naked women, and I am not trying to take that away from them, but I would prefer not to see any for the rest of my life.

        Do you know that instance blocking is now possible at the user level? It’s in your settings, in the “block” tab. On Lemmy it’s mostly lemmynsfw.com that has that content

      I agree with this. I tend to browse “all” and try not to block people I disagree with and only block spammers, subs that are in another language, or that I don’t find interesting in the slightest.

      I’m not interested in making an echo chamber.

        Yeah that is WAY over the top… I’m not interested in that stuff and… damn… it’s everywhere.
