Browsing new or Hot and seeing 15 posts in a row to /imaginarytanks, /imaginarycars, /imaginaryaviation, etc. got old the 2nd time I've seen it. I've had to resort to blocking the communities and bot that's just spamming for content.

I feel your pain when browsing local or all for new communities. Luckily bots are usually marked as such. I just block them whenever they pop up. I sort by new by default and I find that the new page refreshes at a decent pace without bots. It’s enjoyable to be completely caught up within a 10-15 min window, rather than doomscrolling as a force of habit.
