With all the noise on lemmy, spam, and political content I have no interest in, the thought occurred to have blocklists similar to adblock lists. Has anyone looked into this before, is it already a thing? Any thoughts on that?

I think you have it the wrong way, block lists and stuff like that is for sites like Twitter or ideas like mastodon. At least in my experience you have a better time with projects like Lemmy if you pick the communies you like and not the one you do not, and then "live" in your Subscribed feed and just peak at All from time to time

I’m glad you found what works for you. I am slightly different and like to see new things, but I can’t stand spam and politics and such, so I block a so many things and it’s bothersome to try to stay up on it. So my idea was if there are others like myself and we could join forces to collectively filter out the the noise.
