Absolutely. Reddit had default subs and you would add to it as you explored. Lemmy is like the opposite... it's quieter here so you start with seeing everything and then subtract the bad out. Ive blocked instances (mostly other languages), communities, even some users that seem to exist to just post about Linux/communism/that guy who seems to mostly post NSFW material that looks way too young. And after subtracting out what you don't want in your feed it's a pretty good experience.

I've never watched star trek in my life but idk I kinda like some of these memes. They can stay.
