All of the trans communities.
I don't like their patronizing, berating attitude coupled with censoring anyone who might raise a valid point against them.

Sports and Linux.
I have no interest in sports.
I also have no interest in Linux, I have installed and used Linux around ten years ago. If and when I need Linux I'll just go to the mainstream internet or just unblock them and join. But for now no.
Have LꝏꝏꝏTs communities blocked , but noteworthy types :
- Most (meme|shitpost|news) communities . Oversaturation from seemingly homogenous threadiverse userbase
- (Meme|shitpost) content dœsn't lend itself well to conversations (which's what am here for) IMO . If I wanted those I'd just browse tumblr oar some thing
- Prefer getting my news elsewhere
- "(Cringe|Trashy)"-adjacent communities . Thankfully not many exist
- All (.*)(girl|babe)s NSFW communities , don't like seeing photorealistic imgs of conventionally attractive women
As far's instances , only one can remember 🏧's hilariouschaos bcus TERF community on there I think
Nothing, but i have a word blocklist on trump, elon and ice. So that way I am up to date because some stuff still comes through, but not knee deep in the fascism takeover of the US (at least on Lemmy 🥲)
Mostly just sports communities. They tend to post a lot, and I just don't really care about sports outside of Motorsport. If Arsenal has some insane game, or gets a great player signed, I'll hear about it at work sooner or later, either from coworkers or a customer. I would say the only big sport that doesn't apply to between those played in North America and Europe is probably cricket, cause nobody has time for it. Then again, haven't seen a single cricket post, either.
I can stay current on what's going on with the NFL, NBA, MLB, Premier League, rugby and even hurling, just by showing up to work, so there's no real benefit to seeing it here, too.
Also, AI communities get blocked pretty much as soon as they pop up in my feed. The novelty of "Hah, that's crazy that a computer made this image" has long since worn off, and I have no interest in seeing the umpteenth iteration of some AI take on art or photography.
I don't have the option ticked to show nsfw content, and people have generally been good about tagging such content, so I haven't had to block anything there.
Don't have any instances blocked, but I block all the political, trans, furry, and mental illness communities. I wish people wouldn't post political stuff to the YSK or general memes communities, there are 5 million better places to post that on lemmy, but it's manageable.
trans, furry, and mental health communities
I'm surprised you have anything left to view on Lemmy.
I'm really just here for the memes and tech/science stuff, and the occasional interesting discussion
Well, memes and tech are certainly also in abundance.
trans, furry, and mental illness in the same breath?
If lemmy were sane you would have been banned months ago
God forbid another human being has its own preference and acts on them without harming anyone
Huh? I'm literally talking about like anxiety memes, adhd, autism, etc. Just not topics I find interesting.
None. I can handle other ideas and opinions just fine.
wow that's ridiculously naive
God forbid another human being has its own preference and acts on them without harming anyone
All the anime, furries, sports, non-English, news, and politics.
Virgin online activist vs the CHAD meme and amateur pornography enjoyer
Anything Linux. We get it. You like Linux. If I wanted to be converted by religious nuts I'd still be talking to a whole side of my family.
Arch BTW
I'd like to talk to you about climate change. Do you happen to have a minute?
Nothing. I go through my feed raw and unfiltered .ml, hexbear, and everything
All the non-English ones. If I can't read it then there's no point to having it clutteting things up.
Also all the porn. That's not what I'm here for.
So much furry content, holy smokes.
The short answer is anything I don't like or want to see. The shorter answer is .ml.
Blocked furry and most trans stuff. A ton of the porn that littered my feed. That’s probably 75% of my blocklist. Many non-english communities, though I’ve kept a few to run through translators just to see what’s going on in other countries. Communities with high post counts of memes that spam my feed. Any /c with no interest in good faith discussion.
Rick and Morty com. No explanation needed.
I didn't even know there was one
Blocked most furry and trans communities. I'm not against it, not into it and its overrepresented here for obvious reasons.
whoo boy time to block infosec.pub...
Made me laugh, anyway.
For those not in on the joke:
Some of today's best hackers are members of the furry community, and infosec.pub is a hub for Cybersecurity discussions.
I browse mostly by All/Everything, and it's about an 70/20/10 split of non-English communities, sports communities, and anime communities respectively.
The non-English communities are typically on non-English local instances (feddit.org, feddit.nl, jlai.lu, etc), but I don't want to block those instances entirely because their users will still participate in other communities in English and it's not their fault that I just don't speak the language.
The sports communities are just because I don't typically care for that type of content. There are only a couple of sports I actively follow, and within those sports I don't need to see communities dedicated to each and every specific team, so I just block to filter the ones I have no interest in.
As for the anime, I actually do love anime, but a lot of them are communities for specific series I'm not into (which, if I'm being frank, are almost all just utter shit-tier waifu bait material), and others are very creepy "X"-moe communities which just make me feel gross when they turn up (and for those, blocking a single user was enough to get rid of 99% of that).
Mostly murican politics, politics memes, trump/musk stuff (it's like playing whac-a-mole), some anime and furry stuff.
