My preferred way to browse here is using All and blocking communities I don't want to see. That way I get exposed to new things I wouldn't seek out on my own (for example: British archaeology)

I accidentally blocked a community while trying to block a user and when I went to unblock it, I saw I had 1250 communities filtered. If I had to guess, 90% are either porn, sports, or anime.

What about you?

You can choose both English and "unspecified." You'll still see some non-English stuff when people don't set the language, but it will filter out all of the posts where the language is set to something else.
