Unlike Reddit, Lemmy makes no attempt to spoon feed and algorithmically tailor to what it believes will garner the largest audience.
You have to do a little curating here. Block users, communities, and even whole servers that you’re not interested in and suddenly the whole experience changes.
I very very rarely block users or servers because I don’t want to put myself into an echo chamber, but I have a long list of communities blocked because I have no interest in them whatsoever. There could be anime girls posted every 10 seconds with thousands of upvotes for all I know, but I’ve blocked them because I don’t care. They can continue having fun in their community, I can be blissfully unaware of it. Win win.
Make the threadiverse your own and it’s far more enjoyable than everything all at once.
