Everyone is talking about how there isn’t much content, but when I view All + Active the amount of stuff that pops up for me is almost overwhelming. Is it just me?

    For me it was moving kinda slowly, but spent a bit of time this afternoon blocking communities devoted to subjects which actively disinterest me but which are very popular. This created a lot of space for material to show up quickly from a much wider array of subjects.

    No doubt the time will come when that won’t be enough, for now it suits me.

    Ow uhm, so apparently “local + active” is the default setting. Didn’t know about it, thanks for the suggestion

    For some reason, when I tried that, I got a literal firehose of furry porn. Which is fine, I don’t want to yuck anyone’s yum, but it was…a lot. All at once. And I’m unable to determine exactly where it’s coming from (new to Lemmy, and pretty sure NSFW is not allowed on Beehaw).

      That’s how you know the platform is gonna live, lol. The absence of furry porn (yiff) means people won’t hang around and the platform is ailing.

      The server(s) you probably saw was yiffit.net.

      Pawb.social has some, but I think they are gonna eventually request everyone port subs to yiffit if lemmy doesn’t cone up with a feature toggle to bifurcate servers or have a toggle in settings.

      I don’t mind it, but right now my feeds are a bit of a mess.

        I’d rather put it on a toggle, off by default, so that if you want to go squeaky clean you can, then turn it on and you get all that

          Yeah this would be my preference. In the meantime when porn pops up I go into the community and block it. If I ever want to use lemmy for porn I’ll just create an account for that.
