 Yes, when you come across content that bothers you, or upsets you, or makes you angry, or scares you, you want to exit the application and not enter it again. But fortunately most people are not (very) bad and they want the attention of the majority just like them. 

Therefore, it’s easier not to look into Global and block/mute the bad ones, and the impressions from unmoderated Nostr shall be even more pleasant than from moderated Twitter or Facebook. 
 i only use global with the welcome.nostr.wine relay. my experience there is fantastic. 
 To be honest, I don't know how to view the global from a specific relay. Do you need to disable reading from every other relays every time before logging into the global? 
 it depends on your client. for example, snort, amethyst, and damus all allow you to pick a relay for global, and other aspects of nostr, such as search and DMs. on snort, you pick the relay when viewing the global tab. on amethyst, you pick the relay via the globe icon on the relay configuration page. if it's green, it's turned on. i don't know how you do it on damus, because i don't use damus, but i assume it works in a similar fashion. 
 Thanks, I will try it.  
 Here's my Amethyst relay config.

 I get it, thanks. Now I see many "hello world!" and "Test" in my Global too! That's much better experience, thank you Derek.
