I’m liking how active the overall Lemmy community is already getting, but the subs I like aren’t SUPER active yet, so I go to “all” and see a bunch of random stuff. Is there a way to make it so I don’t have to see certain subs? I use wefwef if that matters.

under your user -> settings -> blocks tab, you can block specific communities. And there's an NSFW block there or under the settings tab if you want.

So you're talking about a sort of negative subscription. THat is ... "All" but not (a, b, c, ...).

Nope.

You may want to post this idea in [email protected].

Generally though this issue has come up before and is on the roadmap in same way at least in the form of "multi-communities". But your specific request here is different enough that it might be worth bringing up. I'm not sure it'd be a high priority though.

They can just block those communities.

I'm really out of the loop on this one, but I've heard beans being mentioned more than usual.

What did I miss?

Not sure why it started on lemme but it's something that was done on reddit for about a week. I think redditors are trying to make this place feel like home and shitpost.

Lemmy should invest into the development of its own shitposting industry.

You can certainly block communities in Lemmy – I've done that plenty of times. However, I don't think wefwef supports that yet, as I've looked all over and haven't found it.

EDIT: I need to amend this and clarify that it's Connect for Lemmy that's been allowing me to block communities, instances, and users. I hope all apps included this feature.
