    You will likely want to set up your own instance blocks

    As a former Redditor, I gave up on /r/all years before the enshittification (due to the poor signal to noise ratio) and started culling a list of meaningful subreddits. For me this was a game changer.

    If you plan on using lemm.ee (or any Lemmy instance) as a pre-curated r/all, I think you’re going to have a bad experience. Lemmy, in it’s current state, wasn’t really made for that (the sorting is too simplistic).

    For myself, I simply subscribe to the communities that I’m interested in. If I feel my daily feed is sparse, then I’ll look at what’s threads are trending in the entire fediverse and add those communities, then repeat. After following this process for a couple of weeks, I seldomly want/need to check the entire fediverse.

    I appreciate that Lemm.ee will let me choose the communities that I’m interested in, regardless of they happen to exist on Lemmy.world, hexbear, etc.

      Defederating is more than just blocking communities hosted on those instances. Most importantly, and the reason why most instances get defederated, is that it blocks comments.

      If your instance blocks hexbear, it blocks all comments from hexbear users. That also applies to all communities on other instances.
