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?

I think this is a missing feature that is needed.
I think users should be able to filter entire instances. There is at least one that comes to mind that I know for sure doesn’t host content that I want to see, but I rather not be forced to hunt for that perfect list of federated instances or run my own server nor should I have to block each community one by one.
It should be really easy to implement, too. Thus, I consider it a missing feature.
I’m already working on just running my own instance lol. But no users, just me. That way I can federate/defederate with whoever I want and call it a day.
Any idea on what the monthly cost is going to run?
It’s kinda tricky because you can get a VPS set up really cheap. Like 5 dollars a month cheap or a bit more if you want something more feature rich. But the more instances you federate with, the more storage you’ll need since you’re basically mirroring all of the content you can see. So your cost for storage will go up every month pretty much forever.
I’ll give it a shot. Running self hosted or a VPS isn’t an issue. Thanks.
Do be aware, if you are charged ingress/egress- that can stack up quickly!
