I made a simple script for everyone! It can mass block unwanted communities! ( Like NSFW )
The script is somewhat finished, but i would require your contribution of unwanted communities ( like nsfw, racist, etc… )
It can now even block an instance semi automatically!
Apologies but wouldn’t it be simpler to have a userscript that filters out posts from whole instances?
Only if the instances are thematic. Lemmy.world contains multitudes, some of it I want to see, and some I don’t.
Yeah for that is the script good too ;) if you have a list for example the nsfw list you can simply block them automatically.
That is somewhat correct, but the catch is the server still sends you the unwanted posts. With blocking them the server / the instance you are on is the filter you want. 1. Faster loading speed ( minimal like few milliseconds ) 2. There is not the possibility that your feed is literally empty or just 1-2 posts ( because it would be somewhat resource heavy to fix the filtered posts in the frontend without fetching like the next 2 pages. )
