Everyday I have to block dozen of "x"-moe communities while scrolling the main feed. Is there an easier way to purge anime from main page?

[daepicgamerbro69@lemmy.world]

dont really care for the medium anymore, plus I just never liked looking and the stuff that looks like pedo shit. wouldn't care if it was like once a day but there's literally ten new ones i have to block every single day
also not quite happy about browsing my sfw app in public and suddenly a half naked loli landing on my screen.

Wouldn't it be easier to just subscribe to what you want to see instead of blocking what you don't want to see?

[p00ptart@lemmy.world]

Same problem. Why does every single individual anime need their own VERY specific instance?

[lauchs@lemmy.world]

I can't speak for OP but personally, I want to help as many small lil communities as I can as I think that's the best way to expand.

[unrelatedburner@sh.itjust.works]

I know one person who posts anime in one community, never seen any other related posts, communities or instances.

At this point there are so many of them, its literally just spam. Also, a lot of the time it's very NSFW stuff that doesn't get flagged at all.

[azzu@lemm.ee]

I'm not sure what you mean exactly... Just looked in my block list and I've blocked yiffit.net and like 6 or so anime communities, and I don't remember the last time I had anime in my all feed.

[donuts@lemmy.world]

I've blocked the whole instance ani.social and since then I don't get softcore anime tits anymore.

Was a tough choice because instances usually host a ton of other communities and users but it just became unbearable like you mentioned.

[j4k3@lemmy.world]

It really isn't that much IMO. You'll get used to blocking more. Don't keep scrolling and just block what you don't want while being respectful of others that do like it. I have somewhere around 300 blocked communities in nearly 2 years all for various reasons. This ain't reddit. No one is manipulating you for retention, but no one is tailoring and babying you either. It takes a little effort to prune the list. Most if not all of this is on reddit too, but you were less targeted by it there, assuming that is where you come from. It took me awhile to adjust to this mentality. Now I am not bothered at all by simply blocking each community. There are not more than a dozen or so people regularly posting anime stuff that I can see from my account on LW.

[null_dot@lemmy.dbzer0.com]

Just supposition but a few reasons I can think of...

There must be a lot of crossover between people who have the skills to host an instance, people who have the time to host an instance, and people who enjoy this type of imagery.

Also, there's no honor among thieves.

These guys persons are flirting with danger in many cases. I'm pretty sure the law in my jurisdiction considers anime to be CSAM if a reasonable person is likely to conclude that the person depicted is a minor.

What I'm saying is someone might be willing to walk that line with whatever niche community they want to host because they can manage their own risks. However it would be a huge risk to host other communities lest you fall afoul of the law.

[null_dot@lemmy.dbzer0.com]

I haven't seen a lot of this at all. In the last week with daily visits there would be less than half a dozen I've seen.

Loads of web UIs (photon & tesseract) as well as android apps (thunder) blur NSFW images optionally.

[hubertmanne@moist.catsweat.com]

are you blocking the actual communities because like I don't know what might be wrong with my feed but I don't even think I have seen 10 communitites. are you maybe just blocking users?

[byteme@lemmy.world]

Block instances?

[corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca]

• everyday - standard, conventional
• every day - daily

You in the right lane?

[neidu3@sh.itjust.works]

I think I actually managed to block them all, as I haven't seen any in a while now. I also have an instance-level block on Ani.social

[extravagantenzyme@lemm.ee]

This is a sorting feature of Lemmy, your Subscription feed shows only the communities you've subscribed too. But with Lemmy being small-ish in daily active users, sorting by All isn't too uncommon. I'm pretty sure this is what's going on with OP, or at least that what I assumed here.

Btw, I think yiffit.net shut down a few months ago

[daepicgamerbro69@lemmy.world]

Thank you. I wish I had the same audacity to smuggly correct native anglophones botching my language with their colonizers pig noises but alas, I am too patient.

[idiomaddict@lemmy.world]

I just blocked ani.social

That won’t work if you do want some anime content, but I don’t get any moe communities anymore

[forester@pawb.social]

It shut down on the new year
