What lemmy communities have you joined?

Alk@lemmy.world · 3 months ago

Instead of joining communities, I browse all and block communities I don’t like. That way I am always aware of new or newly federated communities.

Owen Earl@lemmy.world · 3 months ago

good idea! I’ve already started blocking the german meme communities because I don’t speak german

Lemmy has a languages setting that might be helpful here, but I never bothered to check what it actually does. Er, sorry. Just, it could be worth looking into.

Blocking certain country focused instances can help, too.

By default you see everything.

If you start to select languages (Ctrl+Click on desktop, not sure about mobile), you won’t see non-selected languages anymore.

Be careful to keep Undetermined as most of the content isn’t tagged.

Frog@lemmy.ca · 3 months ago

Yeah…

I changed the language and I thought I was shadow banned for a couple of weeks…

Not intuitive at all.

Servais (il/le) · 3 months ago

Indeed, definitely some improvement to be made there

FiveMacs@lemmy.ca · 3 months ago

I’m blocking you because it’s annoying when people censor words…like PORN

Welcome!

On my side

A bit more specific

There is a weekly thread on !newcommunities@lemmy.world that you can have a look at for some ideas.

You can also use https://lemmyverse.net/communities for suggestions, and set up your home instance using the house button so that they open there directly.

Generally I browse “Subscribed | Scaled” and then if I run out I switch to “All | Scaled”.

recklessengagement@lemmy.world · 3 months ago

Honestly, none, I just sorta watch Hot and let whatever algorithm guide posts toward my feed

For big communities there is no need, they will surface to all.

If you have some interests with specific community on lemmy give it a follow. There are lot of them with little traffic ~1 post/week, like !homebrewing@sopuli.xyz it is not dead just fewer posts compared to reddit.
