I'm sticking with Beehaw, thanks to some awfully crap communities (courtesy of Lemmy) showing up in the 'all' feed. I'm continually blocking them, but somehow they'll be back a few days later.

And before you scream at me to 'stick to subscribed', how else am I supposed to find interesting content?

I know that I'm not going to want to see a lot of subs, I understand that.

Just don't want them back once I've (supposedly) blocked them.

I know it's an issue that possibly only affects me, but if Beehaw jumps ship from Lemmy, the crap will be a lot easier to manage.

That's my €2 anyway.

YMMV

There is a search function, just search for what you're interested in and subscribe to the community.

I keep using Beehaw between Subscribed and Local, not touching All with a ten foot pole. As far as concerned, federation is for people to come to Beehaw, or for me to go to a few hand picked external communities.

Have been through that - sometimes 'All' throws up something interesting.

I've just looked at search with my desktop - so much easier, and more features, than on phone, which is what I was using before.

Thank you!

I'm using LiftOff, Sync and the desktop version to search. They all seem to have slightly different features.
