Woohoo!
Woohoo!
I don’t get how we can block. I long press anything and I get a browser menu…
EDIT: Figured it out!
Man how many people even know what this is lol
I think it would be beneficial to start enforcing not using that setting. Don’t receive posts from anyone that has unspecified at the server.
I’m not sure either understand the fact Lemmy has language settings that aren’t apparently used. Seems this can be solved by just setting the language to “English” for instance…
And it worked perfectly! Thank you for that work!
The problem is you lose the ability to encounter new communities by browsing “All”. And since I’m the only user on my instance I will never discover any communities that I don’t manually add or find on third-party websites not to mention that process of using those websites is cumbersome and tedious…
I added the top few thousand communities and the server runs absolutely fine. :)
These are the comments that make Lemmy great.
Absolutely. This is the time to put your support towards app developers, instance providers, and the Lemmy project itself.
It’s not surprising as the motivations are quite different. Reddit wants their app to be a shitty Facebook clone while Memmy/Lemmy focus on the user experience.
I can’t help but wonder if this would be better served at the client level. Either way I miss this feature.

This one is really nice too. I created an issue with the developer to try to limit it to the top most active communities just to not get 7,000. :D
Voat was a replica of Reddit in design. One centralized server. We would have ended up in the same crappy place even if that were a success because at some point they would have wanted to monetize it also.
You have to do some reading and learn about the technology behind Lemmy and federation to understand.
Personally I do not see them access to their network ad-free. Maybe there is some data extraction value in outside people interacting with their users but I just don’t see it.
I hear ya and I’m open to learning, but your way I have to still use another instance to be exposed to new communities. In essence I can’t have a Reddit “all” page… Is that correct?
Familiar with the Reddit story?
Thank you very much for the work on this! I just created a topic about this and yours is the most interesting solution!

This will take care of the other commenters point about having to manually subscribe to everything. I just had it pull the top 500 communities from the top two instances and I’m fine…
