I'm somehow in a similar yet completely different boat from you. My feed under all is made up of like 5 communities - memes, lemmy memes, 196, linux memes, and programmer humor - with guest appearances by politics and technology. Regardless of what I set the filter on my feed to, I have yet to see a single piece of porn crop up; and I had to specifically find a search tool on my pc to find some communities to subscribe to like an r/foodporn equivalent just so I would at least have some stuff pop up on my phone with some more variety related to my interests.

This is probably all related to Lemmy being new and not knowing how to get the most out of the app I'm using (and that being new as well), but as of right now I'm largely using Lemmy the way I used to use ~~Twitter~~ X or something rather than how I used to use Reddit. As a time waster rather than a place where I got invested in the communities I interacted with.

Block the meme communities. It makes things much better. I wish there was a way to relegate certain things to a separate feed without completely blocking them. But right now block is the only tool.

I've actually considered making other accounts to separate content out by blocking different communities on them, but I've never really felt the desire to filter out the memes enough to go through with it.
