I’ve heard it be encouraged that users should curate their own experience on Lemmy by blocking accounts, communities, and/or instances that you don’t want to see. I imagine I’m not the only one curious how my total compares to others’

I’m at 142, and I’m unsure if I should pretend to be bashful about that total

    13 blocked users, 10 blocked communities, 2 blocked instances.

    The blocked users are just trolls looking for arguments.

    The blocked communities are mainly ones on my home instance that have no interest for me, but were appearing in “Local”. Nothing against them, just no interest.

    The blocked instances were ones that brigaded sensitive topics with political fanaticism. I was finding myself trying to have discussions with people who weren’t open to it, but would fiercely respond to any criticism of a viewpoint.
