The default Piefed onboarding process asks you how much politics you needs, hides at least “trump” and “musk” if you want to, and suggests you a list of diverse feeds/topics to join.
Maybe it could be even more agressive and add other words to the blocklist, but it’s not too bad as it is.
Like I said, it’s something that a user needs to configure. It’s already (much) better with piefed but I don’t remember being asked if I wanted to filter out anything (politics or otherwise) when I created my Lemmy account back then… and the default feed’s content was not the most thrilling experience for me ;)
It’s something I think we discussed a few months back (not 100% sure) and I still wish for the default feed of a new user to be empty save for a few tags/categories they would need to click in order to see something in their All/local feed before they even subscribe to any community. I don’t know how to put it: by default, the All/Local should only display all of whatever I’m into not all what’s published ;)

I just created an account today on Piefed.social, and that’s what the default feed is: empty.

Weren’t we referring to Lemmy?
I was always mentioning Piefed, which is a better option was new joiners for that onboarding experience (and other features).
totally agree on that.
