I have so many of these blocked lol.
I blocked so many meme communities which helped my ALL feed look better, but then it was filled with political shit. The problem is, any time something controversial happens regarding someone the broader community doesn’t like (elon musk, trump, republicans in general), you have thread after thread after thread of this shit popping up. I don’t care to hear why republican bad, because I already know republican bad. I’m an intellectually curious being with better things to do with my time than hear about the latest political thing.
And then finally as you said, the technology communites can be a bit tiresome, like when there’s a post about every single time a frickin’ library updates.

… what?
The first language I tried to learn as a kid was Batch scripting…
(edit: and then some VBScript along the way! Eventually worked my way to C++ though)
Superhero stuff is awesome if you’re younger than 17. At some point you’ve got to grow up though.
Space isn’t meant to be the next capitalist playground, which is what we are trying to do.
Regardless of what it’s “meant” to be it will be the final capitalist playground.

I see what you’re saying, I think that other commenters are misinterpreting what it is that you are trying to say. I certainly was.
Changing the algorithm would probably be implemented as a version update which all instances would eventually need to adopt, or be left behind in features & security patches.
Allowing people to game your algorithm to keep their content higher is not a good thing. It made reddit unbearable (thankfully we have Local feed on Lemmy), twitter, etc. It is why YouTube (as far as genuinely informative videos go) is circling the drain.
And yet, by the numbers, it is basically the fediverse (like literally ~88% of active users are on mastodon!).
I guess it must not be as bad as you make it out to be then?
What’s moronic is advocating for the enshittification of a platform.
Yea, I don’t want to sound like I’m arguing here, but there is a generally negative vibe that is being replicated here on lemmy as it was on reddit:
The toxicity is already here when you browse “All.” I’ve just blocked most of the offending communities for a better experience. The list grows longer every day… but that’s just my opinion. I think we can all agree that browsing “All” is like playing mental health on nightmare mode.
There is a lot of toxicity that I don’t want here…
It already is… :(
On the flipside, the American exceptionalism on the Lemmys is par for the course…
