Is there a way to block hexbear
I don’t like to see so many political posts in all and so many weird images in comment sections
You're viewing a single thread.
I don't understand why blocking (or "defederating") instances is such a core part of the design of lemmy but not actually supported on a per-user basis.
It is possible on kbin and also many lemmy apps.
Connect has it.
Defederating is core to the fediverse. Lemmy just uses a shared protocol to exchange content. And as others have said, Kbin has instancr blocking, community/magazine blocking, and user blocking. You could just create an account on a Kbin instance if it's important enough. You still get to see the same things.
Kbin has instance blocking, community/magazine blocking, and user blocking.
Kbin doesn't have instance blocking yet, just domain blocking, which is for hiding posts that link to a particular domain. Domain blocking is also bugged right now, and will just hide random stuff from you.
I mean, if you want to get technical, none of them have any blocking really. Blocking on any fediverse is generally just the equivalent of muting/hiding.
Wasn't aware of the bug though (as I haven't tried the feature yet, but probably wouldn't have a way to notice anyway).
It will be a much smaller thing once user based instance blocking is available
Lemmy maintainers admin lemmy.ml and don't want to give users the ability to easily block it all lol
Not true, they're actively working on it.
