    Part of the problem may be lack of tagging and filtering tools.

    For example:

    I’m not interested in memes so if a community is largely filled with them, my only way to avoid them may be to block the community. This includes communities that I might otherwise subscribe to, or want to engage with.

    This is also tied into community fragmentation, community discoverability, and feeling the need to browse All to see anything. I don’t know how widespread my issue is, but I have seen others mentioning having extensive block lists of communities.

        I’m responding more to the feeling that a community has a single human posting. Even as a reader it can feel that way.
