Is there a way to block whole lemmy servers from your feed?
Is there a way to block whole lemmy servers from your feed?
I don't want to block all nsfw content but I really don't want to have to block every new porn community that pops up on lemmynsfw. Is there a way to block all the communities that originate at lemmynsfw?
You're viewing a single thread.
def needs more controls here, you can tag your account so you dont see nsfw, blocking instance requires your instance to de-federate. easiest thing to do might be to find an instance that has rules that align with what you want as they will block/defederate instances that bring content in against those rules (to a degree)
While this is a solution in the short term, it's impossible to predict which instance will always align with what the user wants blocked in the future. You can self host and defederate yourself sure, but that's not really a solution for the masses. We really don't need to go as far as defederation for this when all we need is a way for the individual user to block/hide instances at will.
Defederation is a heavy hammer for what I view as a UI problem. I just don't want to see a whole swath of communities but still like the instance that federates with them.
A more distinguished way of tagging would be interesting: Like NSFW for porn and NSFL for gore and let’s say NSFH (not safe for health) for alcohol and tobacco etc.
