What do you think of an option to ban politics from the feed on account registration like this:

Effectively, when you click "no politics", it should block the !news@lemmy.world, !politics@lemmy.world, !politicalmemes@lemmy.world, !pravda_news@news.abolish.capital communities and such for the newly registered user.

It would help clear up the feed and be more attractive to new users. Maybe this could even be the default view when you're not logged in.

I like the groupings things but don't find the pre subscribed all the useful. Part of it is until the federation is the main location to go for niched content it makes more sense to block what you don't want than to subscribe to what you do. May always be like that given that its much easier for variations on the same thing to pop up (although piefed groups should handle that)
