Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

So like, I recognise you from Beehaw & plenty of other regulars, but underneath "jarfil" it says "beehaw.org". Useful when skimming a thread to see which instance a given type of view is coming from.
It may be a setting which I enabled at some point - am using the Memmy app.
Being mindful of hijacking the top commenters concerns, I need to hop on a filtering bandwagon, as I don't want a front page that looks like r/all. Way better here, don't get me wrong, but does Memmy help you curate your experience?
My memory is so bad, that am not really sure.
I blocked a LOT of communities via browser & some via Memmy. I think most via browser as I could search for a topic then block all of the communities that contain that topic in their name.
It is relatively easy to block through Memmy, though you still have to see a post from a community you're disinterested in seeing in All, then open the community then opt to block it from a drop down menu in the top right. I see in the settings that it is possible to block instances & users, but haven't tried this yet.
And of course you can choose to avoid All & just view Local or Subscribed.
(Fwiw, also blocked masses of subreddits from appearing on r/all, but definitely have no idea how I did that.)
