Unfollowed about 20 channels. Some were once very promising, but I've lost interest as they've become overrun with generic content: boring AI art, tedious watered-down platitudes, endless streams of mints with no context, farmed low-effort replies, etc.

I greatly appreciate curated channels and the work done by mods.

You have not experienced a true channel til you have followed /woodenboats just saying 🫡

Thank you for all the curation you've been doing around here. You've been a qDAU since long before the floodgates opened. I appreciated it then, and I appreciate it even more now.

I feel the same way. Used to explore and participate in more channels before the spam got really bad.

TBH I needed to trim down the list of channels I was following anyway, as I simply don't have enough attention to go around. 

The decline in quality in some channels just made easier for me to click that unfollow button. 😄

I did the same recently and it was very effective. 

Unfollowing is a lowkey goated way to stop seeing thing you don’t like.

Yep. Most people can tell immediately when something is engagement bait, too. The baiters aren't fooling anyone; they're just repelling the qDAUs, as it were.

Yes I’m practically allergic to lazy AI art now. It’s a real turn off. As is anything that is evidently engagement bait.

As well you should! Life is too short to waste time and attention on low-signal content.

Thank you for the degen tip. Much appreciated.

yeah, it's ok to trim every once in a while, i find myself unfollowing both people and channels if they aren't adding something worthwhile to my feed

We'll see if it worked the way I'm hoping. Fingers crossed.

When channels launched there was such a lackadaisical attitude about mods. I've been a mod before myself so I'm not surprised to see this happen. But I still love this place and I think we'll get past this somehow.

if you got away from the tedious watered-down platitudes, i would very much like to rent this superpower. my timeline reads like the motivational poster aisle at a Hallmark
