I just reached 112 myself.

I'm very much awaiting a time when users can block specific instances. I still don't want to check the option to hide NSFW content, because I do want to see NSFW content that may show up on non-porn communities. Just not really interested in seeing so much porn in All.

You can check on your settings page, btw, in the Blocks tab - count quickly with Ctrl+F.

I have 238 blocked communities. ~3/4 porn, 1/4 sports, gaming, and non-English. I don't really want to block the instance as i kind of like to see the community titles. It's like a weird name competition. Winners are currently hentaibdsm and dangleandjiggle.

So, instead of subscribing to communities you want to see, you block communities you don't want to see. Interesting approach. You have more communities in your blocklist than communities I subscribed to.

First i read my subscribed by new, then i read all by new to learn about other communities. If a community I'm not interested in posts occasionally, i just scroll past. If there are 13 posts in a row about a football team, i block it.
