I look through my subscriptions first and then through all but I block magazines where I have no interest in the topics or are in a foreign language relative to me.

On mastodon, i sometimes go to the explore page to see whats trending.

CONSOOOM

I do Lemmy by subscribed/new until I get to something I recognize. I scroll Facebook a bit to see what my distant family is doing and to see what’s going on in the work/industry/hobby groups that I follow. I check Facebook marketplace local to see if there’s anything cool. Then I read the news for local stuff and to see what didn’t get posted here. Then if I’m super bored I go back to Lemmy/All

I search YouTube for how-to videos or specific songs. The only time I really take recommendations is on music - I like to pick the recommended song that’s least similar to the song that I just listened to and keep doing that to see where it takes me.

I don’t follow much social media, beside Lemmy and maybe YT.

And then, since self-inflicted pain is not my thing, I only read those communities (and watch those channels) I have chosen to subscribe to.

Lemmy is all I use, and since it’s so small I just browse /all and when I keep seeing subs I’m not interested in (or a language I don’t understand) I just block them so I don’t see them anymore.

Then I’ve instance blocked a couple places because of how their mods/admins act so I don’t accidentally stumble into a sub from that instance.

You could try to curate a list of subscriptions, but I just don’t think Lemmy is big enough for that yet, and you’d miss new subs.

When I’m at work, I click on the little “Feed me garbage” button at the bottom of Windows, and get pissed off at how evil and ignorant people are.

I really need to quit doing that.

im subbed to ~700 communities across dozens of servers. the https://moist.catsweat.com/all/newest queue is always hoppin

then theres the microblog stuff where i follow a few mastodon, universodeon peeps.

I don’t use social media except Lemmy. I refuse to eat bad food, so why would I consume bad content? And stay away from commenting sections like YouTube and Steam unless you like brain rot. People be peopleing.

I use the search bar.

After browsing my regular subscriptions, I’ll scroll through all mode. But it’s mostly us politics :/

I open Jerboa and start scrolling with it showing me everything sorted by newest comment so only the posts people are talking in show up at the top. When I see something interesting, I open it.

Mainly mixed, I use mostly youtube(via invidious(Piped broke)),Peertube,odysee,Lemmy.

I use Lemmy and YouTube. when Lemmy content dries up, I watch a couple of things on YouTube before I begin doing something productive
