How did you even find that many? Did you know connect for lemmy let’s you block entire instances in app?

I used Memmy and just went through /c/all and hit block on anything I wasn’t interested in or was in a language I can’t read. I also used the search function to search for things that I know I’m not interested in “shitpost”, “anime”, “circlejerk” etc and blocked everything that came up in the results.

I didn’t know about Connect letting you block entire instances. I saw a post on how to do that manually, but I haven’t tried that yet. Might be good to block some foreign language content if an instance is gonna serve up nothing but stuff I can’t read.

Connect also has filters. I’ve also found a script for migrating subscriptions which won’t help here but maybe next time for safety you could back it up to an alt that way?

Does memmy have content filters? Maybe suggest it to the devs.

Eh, I’m not one to go around suggesting functionality to devs of anything right now. At this point they’re all just scrambling to add basic functionality to what they’ve managed to scrap together. I’m pretty patient, I’ll just wait and see what apps end up with what functionality and which ones are receptive to user input and maybe if I find one that’s 98% of what I am looking for I’ll suggest adding that last 2%. But for now I just used Memmy to block stuff and that’s about it.
