It seems like there needs to be additional community tags based on subject matter so you can block that tag rather than having to individually block a million communities or having to block an entire instance which you may not want to do.
You could just use subscribed but as Lemmy is fairly small, if you want new content with anything approaching regularity, searching by all or local is all but essential.
Everyone’s opinions differ for sure but even in fairly popular communities there aren’t that many posts a day, especially when compared to larger, other, less API friendly sites…
Why ‘Linux / IT’ guys? Is that really the demographic or the perceived demographic? I would consider myself a Linux / IT guy, but I’m not ever seeing furry things in linux tutorials for example. Just surprised that was the ‘go to’ group you listed as the demographic.
Because it’s full of Linux IT people aka furries and anime nerds?
This is the answer. It comes with the territory when you have a demographic that is nerdy and terminally online.
This demo has more pros than cons, but I do find myself using the “block community” option liberally.

Couldn’t you also switch your feed to “subscribed”
Topic based tags could work, but there’s no way to enforce that community’s will tag things about themselves

Hear hear!
My wife saw me trying to block some big booby anime stuff and assumed I was browsing the community. I’m in my mid 40s guys, it’s not ok.
Also why do they always look ashamed of their boobs? They’re huge! You’d think they’d be proud.

It’s a running joke at this point.
Haha that’s pretty damn funny 😄
