Is there a way to block entire instances?
Is there a way to block entire instances?
The amount of communist and nazi shit I’m getting is unsettling.
If I recall, it's on the roadmap for lemmy development.
I'm glad exploding-heads is defederated, but my blocklist is quickly filling up with lemmygrad and I'd love to stop playing whack-a-mole on
AllConnect for lemmy has this on Android. Since others are saying it's on the road map for lemmy, I guess its built into the Connect app and doesn't apply when you login via pc/browser but it should help if you're on mobile, works for me.
This app has so many features it's the best one by far IMO. Loving it, and the developer shoots updates out so fast. The instance blocking is a big bonus.
I can't wait for this feature to come to Lemmy. It will save me time. However, I'm grateful for the ability to block communities. It really helps me customize my "All" filter so I don't have to see stuff I'm not interested in.
Me too. I really just want to block all of lemmynsfw on this account instead of playing whack-a-mole with individual communities as they come up on all (I’ll make an account over there if I want porn), but I’ll still block individual communities to curate the type of stuff I see. I do enjoy that ability.
Connect for Lemmy has this feature on Android, but I doubt it carries over to other apps or in browser usage, since lemmy itself doesn't support it yet.
I'd like to be able to do that as well.
Which instances are filled with that filth? I've not seen any of the such...
Lemmygrad and exposing-heads specifically are the worst
Blocking all the lemmyml communities is a chore
Where are you seeing it? I browse all instances often and haven't seen any
I'm sorry those Nazis are bothering you, Comrade
Get used to it, it'll do you good.
But yeah on kbin you can block instances.Maybe it was just buggy a couple weeks ago when I tried it, but I tried blocking feddit.de and it didn't work. I would still see magazines from that instance, I had to block them individually to make them go away.
Ah weird, it seems to work for me.
edit: I checked, it doesn't work.
I had a bunch of instances blocked a while ago (ex: yiffit.net) and it worked for a while. But then they started showing up again. Same for magazines and communities. I'm not sure what's going on...
