Yeah I wish I could silence the star trek instance. I don't want to block them though, they're nice people. I just have never watched star trek so I have no idea what any of their posts mean, so having them in my feed is not desirable.
Now I understand how my friends feel when I talk about Halo lore.
I love star trek, so I love that instance, but Lemmy.world feels like its replicating the toxic discussion style from reddit. I'm not here because I loved reddit but hate what they did to it. I have hated reddit for years, I am here for a completely different thing from reddit. The slrpnk instance and the Lemmy.ml are the main instances I want to interact with. If there are other anarchist instances in the future, I'd like to interact with those, but ideally keep the toxic bullshit to a minimum.
For sure no disrespect to star trek fans. I've just never watched it. I don't want to block the people I just want to filter out the memes I don't understand.
