- Most of them are non english communities. Haven't had to block them in a while, I must have gotten all of them.

How many communities are on lemmy.ml?
Zero.
673 communities are blocked. Which, to be honest, is a hell of a lot more than I thought I had blocked. I thought I might have around 150 communities blocked. Most of them are sports, sports teams, video games I have no care for, weird ones, apps, gender communities, and furry oriented communities. I get around the porn ones by not having NSFW enabled.
The tankie trio, and a load of gay/trans stuff I have no interest in seeing.
Memes, politics and gay/gender stuff.
Blocking Hexbear, Lemmygrad, and Lemmy.ml fixed 99% of my issues with this place.
Oh right, I think I blocked those too.
I don't know, but it's mostly memes and gay stuff.
i wasn't even aware that was a thing you could do, but i suppose it makes sense.
Oh and it's none just for the record.
Got 20 communities blocked and coincidentally 20 users blocked 🙃
A lot. Not sure how many. Hundreds. Lots of the porn communities for shit that I'm not interested in. Most of the vegan communities. Anime and furry porn, twinks and ladyboys, any women/girls with penises, bondage porn, any community that's just an endless stream of pissing and moaning, tankies and fascists, bimbos and anything that glorifies plastic in female bodies, anything to do with unhealthy bodies, proana, etc. some local communities where I don't live, a fucking baseball communities that posts 100 times a day and lots of team communities. Lots of communities on .ML
I browse all so that I see new communities as they emerge then block them if I'm not interested.
You forgot all the Montero and coin communities! It's a good start though to be sure.
Almost 200 pretty much exclusively from lemmynsfw before you could block a whole instance.
Once they added that, I've blocked very very few communities.
Same here, instance blocking was a nice add on that I wish we had earlier.
About 330. A crap ton of porn stuff, furry, bondage, etc. Several non-English communities. Operating system related stuff like Linux or android. A few “normal” communities that are on instances that don’t allow much dissent or contrary opinion.
Zero. I don't need to block communities as I only browse subscriptions.
302
Whatcha got on there?
Porn, anime, sports, a bunch of video games I don't play, and some spammy or obnoxious communities too. Oh, and foreign languages I don't speak (until we get built-in translation)
A lot, I've blocked all political, non-english, and anime communities that show up
