A lot of the larger abandoned magazines are just spam pools now. I don’t see their posts in my feed, but I don’t like that the two sidesbars of random posts and threads are now just spam advertising sidebars. I triedblocking the magazines, but doesn’t that prevent the posts from showing in those sidebars.
Now don’t get me wrong, I love it when m/infosec advertises voodoo curses and revenge spells, but after the first time the joke wears thin, you know?
If your main goal is exporting your magazine subscriptions between accounts across instances, may I suggest trying EXIT tool. If you are looking for more complex export settings (friends/favorites?), unfortunately, only subscriptions are supported at this time.
