I feel weird doing this, but some communities have been appearing in my feed that I have no real interest in, and I’m wondering if the appropriate response is to block them. That would take them out of my feed, but it feels mean to me for some reason. What are all of your thoughts?

    What I used to do on the link aggregating site I used to use (last week), was spend most of my time viewing just what I was subscribed to, then, when I’d seen everything there, I’d spend some time viewing everything, just to see what else was out there.

    Been doing the same thing in Lemmy.

    The “All” feed in Lemmy tends to be like drinking from the firehose occasionally. You’re scrolling and reading posts, then suddenly three dozen new posts show up and boot you out of your place. You lose the post you were about to tap, and now there’s dozens of posts to scroll past again.

    I know there was an issue the devs were working on related to that. Not sure if they’ve straightened it out.
