Just wanted to say thanks to the dev of this great app. I'll be leaving Lemmy because I just can't stand the amount of circle jerking communities there are, but while I was here I enjoyed the app itself.

Good job, and thanks for your service!

It's not an airport dude, you don't need to announce your departure

That's the same reason I've been browsing Reddit less and less.

On Reddit (haven't been in a few months now) I felt like the annoying communities were all blocked (by the end I think I had about 170 filtered subreddits...) but here it feels like my feed is 80% about adblocking. You go on technology, it's not about techs in general, it's about how to block YouTube.

There are a few good memes though. I'll miss that.

I get it.. I have a lot of filtered communities on the everything page. But i am sticking it out still. I only browse 30 min or so a day so it isn't terrible. But also subscribing to the few communities with content i want to see regularly helps a lot as well.

That's what I should do, but to find communities, you need to browse more or less, and I just see these 5 or so communities (the most annoying are blocked) and I wish I could filter them out of All, but keep them in "my feed" or whatever.

Yeah, right now if you block it, it's blocked.

I go into All and sort by New and it's all the subs that are being seeded with new content right now, either new subs trying to gain traction or people crossposting stuff.

Right now it's "Flyers" for some reason, must be hockey season I guess. :)

Dunnning Kruger is strong here.

It just doesn't apply to this context, but good try.
