Lol, I forgot how busy this instance can be because I blocked both of the news communities last year (and I think one or two others, but I can't remember which and don't care enough to look) and set up keyword filters in my app to never see posts with certain words or phrases in their title.

Thanks to that, the majority of my experience isn't particularly negative. Admittedly, there's a lot less content, but I don't really care all that much.
