If it's 196, just pick an individual post you don't like, and search that users posts. Then block them individually. That page has some really out there posts and by blocking individual users, I don't see it nearly as much, and the quality is higher.

That's a good idea. I unsubscribed from a few communities because there were some overly enthusiastic posters that weren't my taste. I should have just blocked them instead!
I feel it works pretty good because some communities have good quality posts with only a handful of people that would otherwise turn me off from it but once I started doing that, I realized it didn't take a whole lot of blocks to clean up my feed significantly.
I usually use the "scaled" feed sorting algorithm instead of the default "active" one. It does a better job of showing a larger variety of posts, including posts from small communities.
Thanks - gave it a try and itβs just what I was looking for!
That's what the different sorting algorithms are for. Trying sorting by "active" or "scaled" and see how it goes
Thank you - scaled is working great!
I agree about this. Reddit and co do this automatically. I would like to increase or decrease priority of communities, something like a score multiplier for post rankings.
But, not it doesn't have it.
