    I’m tired of having to screen the same shit every time a new instance spins up with morons like this.

    I’m glad they’re defederated because they were by far the most screened communities I had in my list prior to learning that Connect just has it’s own internal server blacklist and I was able to put their instances on that list globally instead of playing whack-a-mole.

    That’s something I kind of hate about the fediverse is that every time somebody spins up a new instance I have to go play whack-a-mole again with the usual suspects: sports and politics.

      These assholes came out on day fucking one and did nothing but demonstrate that their goal was to be disruptive trolls. And then they sit there and whine about how everyone else is brainwashed, and nobody wants to listen to alternative points of view. That alternative point of view, apparently being pictures of pig shit.

      And then they are shocked that people think they are assholes.

      You defederate or screen all sports content? Is this a personal preference, or do sports subs attract hateful content?

        It’s not a political and sports thing, it’s just a sports thing. I just don’t care about sports at all, it clogs my feed. I just remember one day checking my front page and there were like 4 back-to-back baseball summary bot threads from that one specific sports instance and that was that.
