Programming.dev is nice a community and overall i like the content I get when i stay on my local instance.

The moment i am switching to “all” everything becomes extremely left leaning and too politicised for my taste.

Is there a way to block all the communist/anarchist/anti-capitalist stuff, or this is Lemmy in general?

I’ve blocked a few communities here and there. Not a bad way to control what content you’ll see personally.

Just don’t switch to “all”, that’s it. Pretty much any platform that has more than 1.5 users and allows any political discussions is doomed to be filled with extreme politics

Right now, if you can’t handle having to block communities you don’t like, then ALL isn’t the place for you.

Lemmyverse.net is a great directory to find content.

You might find it easier to recommend your friends an instance that federates closer in line with your views. You can view who is federated and defederated by a particular instance at https://Your_Instance_URL/instances

Agreed or create your own instance

What communities/instances are you dominating your /c/all? Asking because I was hoping for more leftist discussion and I’m not really seeing it outside of lemmygrad.

Edit: I’m mostly following programming.dev and lemmyrs.org, so I’m not really looking too hard. And I appreciate beehaw, but it feels more center left than left.
