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.

    It’s not spam. These communities don’t just magically spring up from nothingness, there are people that have to contribute to these to get them started and to get them to grow. If you don’t like what you see, then block them, but go take a look at @Martineski@lemmy.fmhy.ml profile and you’ll see they’ve done more to help this instance and multiple communities grow than just about anyone else.

    Lemmy is still new, if you have a suggestion on how you would like to see things improved good, but complaining about something that you aren’t thinking about thoroughly isn’t helpful at all.

      At least one person in the comments gave me a good feedback. But to decide what to do I will need to contact the person that works on tags on github and go into an in-depth discussion with him about how it will work when the first stage of the tags isn’t implemented yet…
