In my personal opinion, this site is completely unusable without heavy content filtering. Just being picky about which communities to follow and users to block isn’t enough.
That said, I realize I might be in the minority on this, so I’m curious what others are doing to preserve their sanity.
I use feeds on Piefed. Take a look at these feeds with less politics and less tech:
back when I used lemmy instead of piefed, I read by “new / subscribed” and only subscribed to those communities.
