I’ve heard it be encouraged that users should curate their own experience on Lemmy by blocking accounts, communities, and/or instances that you don’t want to see. I imagine I’m not the only one curious how my total compares to others’
I’m at 142, and I’m unsure if I should pretend to be bashful about that total
My client doesn’t give me a number, but I would estimate it as at least equal to the number you have blocked. Comprised almost entirely of people who are trolls, spam bots, or generally incredibly unpleasant and not who I want polluting my feed.
I don’t think you should be embarrassed by it at all, instances themselves can easily be viewed as curated block lists, as any instance not filled to the brim with internet refuse is going to be blocking at least some instances (along with all the users on it). Adding a few hundred more to it is just fine tuning.
