I am theoretically switching over from Reddit to Lemmy. Finding myself spending more time on Lemmy than on Reddit. Maybe it’s because I am limited to using the desktop and can’t aimlessly browse Reddit on my iPhone. Of late, the only subreddits I cared for were on sports and their matchday threads and r/watches. I found myself aimlessly browsing through r/AskReddit and asking and answering pointless questions.
Pretty tough when there are thousands of different instances you can link to/mention.
blocking the words “lemmy”, “feddit” and “kbin” will cut off access to 80% of the lemmyverse.
But there are also several pages that list all existing instances to help new users discover them. It would be easy to take this list and autoremove all comments that mention them.
