As an American, after getting somewhat comfortable with Lemmy, I've spent the last week since the blessed Boost app dropped blocking subs in All and local. Some of them are just active (politics), others are low effort pandering immature bullshit (political memes), even news-ish communities seem to have relatively high level of 24-hour biased political stuff. Might have to block them from local/all too.

My feed has definitely improved, I guess I took for granted how curated my feed was on Reddit, but pretty happy with what I have now after a bit of effort.
