      No, screw sports! Open your own instance for that. It was so annoying to block sports on reddit every single week.

          Because a new sub would pop up every week. Braves, nhl, baseball, redsox, golf, etc.

        Yeah I meant more in it’s own instance vs here. But what I’m saying is even if I do I won’t get the breaking news content I want because the journalists are not switching over

          There is a sports instance of Lemmy, I don’t remember what it’s called though. I think I saw the red devils community (name could be wrong, I don’t watch sports) drop a post about moving to the instance.

          There are some bots on Mastodon that mirror tweets from sports reporters that I’d followed on Twitter.

          It’s annoying that’s you can’t respond to things like mailbag questions, but I can still get breaking news, NFL training camp reports, etc.
