Yes exactly. Even anime or TV shows i enjoy i block for fear of spoilers.

Yes so do I, that's my problem. I want to be able to filter content to my interests by category, not individually. It's tiresome to block nba, nfl, futebol, even individual teams. A blocklist i could import for "sport" would be a huge experience improvement for me, just as I imagine for a sports fan if they so wished could block all "anime".

Share blocklists? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)
 

Possibly another approach to my last post, but with wider scope - https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/25640154

Is it possible to share a blocklist of communities based on themes? I would find a non English language list very useful, but as I said in the previous post blocking an instance like *.de or *.nl means interrupting comments by users in an English post. Instance level blocking means people who speak multiple languages (and I am one myself) are hidden from me.

But if this were possible it could also be used to block communities for topics I have no interest in, such as sports or all the software I never use announcing update releases. It makes tuning my feed a chore and I think this would improve the experience for everyone's tastes.

Block posts but not comments by instance? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)
 

Hi. Recently joined and wondering if this is possible. There are many instances with country codes or top level domains, naturally content there is in the relevant language. German in .de for example.

However many users in these instances speak English and participate in other communities.

Could I filter out posts from non English instances without then interrupting replies in comments because the user is blocked by instance?

Thank you.

Snopes says that this is unconfirmed, but the rumor persists. in c/microblogmemes@lemmy.world
