  Doesn’t really address the overall issue of filtering out a massive amount of communities that are of no interest to a user though. I just jumped on there. There are 17 new communities. 1 of which might be of interest. That ratio sounds like an awful grind to keep up with.

  I see what you’re saying. Lemmy isn’t as big as Reddit… but it’s still also somewhat huge for a mere mortal to play whack-a-mole on an individual basis. Let me paint a scenario. As I mentioned I don’t want to see “Sports” related communities. Cool. Theoretically I’d block a tag of “sports”. That’s basically saying I don’t want to see THOSE communities (a MASS whack-a-mole if you will).

  But lets do the inverse a whitelist approach instead. I’m interested in Science, Art, and say Games. There’s no way for me to for me to subscribe to a topic tag either at this point to only show me stuff relevant to my interests.

  Imgur, for instance, lets me filter in and out loads of specific tags from my feed (also specific use posts).

  I guess I have the answer though to my query that it isn’t possible since there is only 1 tag so far and it’s for NSFW content.

  Ok. At least it’s not just me noticing communities for a bazillion small sports teams every backwater location in the US.
