i see a lot of news about australian politics, news of seattle, darmstadt, brazil, … all places where i don’t live, where the posts aren’t relevant to me. it would be cool to be able to tag posts/communities with a geographical location so i can easily filter which posts are / aren’t probably relevant to me. in one setting in my profile, instead of having to block each community individually (there’s hundreds of them at this point)

    As far as Lemmy is concerned, I just joined an instance that’s relevant to my location (feddit.uk). I suppose if it grew a great deal more popular than that, I could create a community there for my local county.

    I should absolutely mention though that I’m still hard at work on Habitat, which is a platform for local communities, and each post has a lat/long location associated for a more hyperlocal type of interaction. It’s not on the Fediverse though (though there are plans for non-Fediverse federation).
