I’m playing whack a mole constantly, blocking all these anime subs!
I’ve had to block a lot of anime subs. It was a problem for a while, but now I hardly see any.
Yes, blocking something you don’t want to see usually results in seeing fewer of that thing.
Not when that thing has dozens of communities for every little nuance a genre can have. For example:
Block the instance
Edit: I love anime but my response was for those who don’t. If they want less then subscribe to the local ones and block the anime instances that aren’t local
Right (appreciate the sparky comment), but there seem to be anime subs for every little anime niche there could possibly be. If it was all limited to a few anime subs this would never have been an issue. Block one or two communities, and you’re done.
Instead, you have to play wackamole and block communities every couple of weeks that get created for some new niche that apparently is t filled.
On the other hand, imagine wanting to block Linux communities, it feels like every other day there’s a new one
Are you actually checking the creation dates on the communities?
Or are you just mad that there are a lot of them, and that people actually post to them, even months after they get created, and so you end up seeing a new one now and then.
Because as one of the biggest anime content posters, “every couple weeks” is just not the case. There’s daily content but it’s from a definite group of subs that you absolutely can block.
Here, I even have a list: https://ani.social/post/284178
