      Cheers.

      Majority of participants aren’t from Beehaw.

      Bar one person, it seems all of the Beehaw people in the thread have similar concerns to OP.

        How do you see that? Maybe I came late to that thread after it got moderated, or I subconsciously filter out non-Beehaw users, but is there like a counter I could see?

          Under people’s usernames on their comments in a thread.

          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.)
