This is the way.
They really need to implement something like content type tags that can be blocked instead of individual communities. PieFed tried with word-based blocks, but that's dumbly implemented client-side stupidity that doesn't work the second you use a third party app.
I want to block "news" or "us_news" type channels! Just let me block the category and be done with it!! It'd also process a lot faster than an ever growing list of individual channels/instances.
I found it's easier to make Piefed feeds of non-politics and non-tech communities
Which is why I intend to switch to piefed, eventually. Already made an account, just need to transfer my shit over.
I’ve always liked this idea, but who defines the categories? If it’s users or server hosts, you’re basically back to square one because you’ve got “news”, “us_news”,”usnews”,”us-news”,”usa_news”…
If you put one entity in charge of defining tags, now we’re missing decentralization.
Users propose tag names and definitions, community votes to pick which tag is “official” when competing tags exist as well as the “official” definition, either automated approval when appropriate (overwhelming majority support) or moderator/admin intervention when it gets dicey (50/50 split on a bullshit semantics argument)
Something like that. This is a solved problem that exists on several aggregator websites to help alleviate categorization. This approach also means that users can propose new categorizations for existing content when OPs are lazy and don’t tag content. Then someone posting us politics news can be filtered without filtering the rest of their content regardless of where they post it
