Comment on Is there any way I can stop seeing sports posts?

I keep blocking the communities but they’re like thousands of millions of communities that never end

There is literally like 3 of them, plus a few dozend for specifc teams, which hardly get a post per day.

This is not a real problem.

  I just set my view to “Subscribed” and never subscribe to those. 🤷🏻‍♂️ Haven’t seen a sports post yet.

There’s not. I’m really into hockey, for example. We have a “hockey” community, but there’s also a community for each team. So 33 communities for hockey alone.

Though as far as I know, there’s only one bot that posts scores of hockey games, and it only makes one post a day and posts all of the scores as comments under that daily post. Then it edits those comments to keep them all up to date as the games are played. I wrote that one myself, and I specifically was trying to avoid spamming with tons of posts, as there can be as many as 16 NHL games a day.
