mute all news, hundreds of anime, a hundred ideology bait subs, and a hundred or two misc and it's almost not annoying

Can we all just move on from Reddit? I feel like the constant bitterness toward it only brings a negative attitude to Lemmy.
Personally, I have Reddit completely blocked on my network and the only way to “access” it is to redirect to a Redlib instance. I don’t really care to hear about it anymore.
- But how will I find the solution [Comment deleted] from [User deleted] for my obscure software problems???

Lemmy isn’t a whole lot better. There’s still stuff you have to block straight away.
- The worst part is, after you block all the foreign language communities, all the Linux, all the loli anime, there's very little left.
  
  So much anime feet.
  I thought oh maybe i was being overzealous? Nope. Unblocked everything and quickly went back to my asexual zen of blocking all porn/pedophilic anime shit
  
  all the Linux
  Unafuckingcceptable.
  
  All the loli anime
  Hwat
- Like cat subs, before blocking them my screen was full of cats
  
  my screen was full of cats
  I see no problem with this
  
  That's by design though. The internet is for cats and porn, with a very clear line seperating them

This definitely applies to Lemmy as well

Why all these Reddit memes today? Did they have another meltdown over there or what?

Wrong, don't use Reddit
(Towerdata use even keylogging)
Reddit = Data broker

Been a while since I've been on Reddit. Isn't the front page a collection of all subscribed subreddits? This would apply more to /r/all or am I wrong?
- They add "suggested" subs to your feed now. They're labeled as such, but it's pretty annoying.
  A lot of content is toxic dopamine-loop bullshit that I will consume if it's in my feed. On reddit, I stopped being able to keep it out of my life.
  
  Fucking hell, I'm glad I left. That sounds pretty annoying.
  
  Just turn it off, I did.

There are some niche communities that I really enjoyed over there but its not worth downloading the app.

Whenever I see the front page while I'm signed out I just see nothing but "ORANGE MAN BAD! ELON BAD!"
alright, don't you want to talk about things you enjoy? do you actually enjoy anything at all? or do you want to live in that miserable place where you do nothing but feel hatred all the time?
I'm not a fan of Trump or Elon either. But there's other shit you could be posting about that's better for your mental health, don't you think?
- Being apolitical is a luxury many cannot afford
  
  If you have time to doom scroll you have time to engage in hobbies and non political conversations. Otherwise go spend time organizing the resistance or get to the range or whatever you need to do.
