Is there anyway i can block all communities from certain instance (everything @example.com) ?
This will be implemented in Lemmy soon, then we’ll implement in Voyager :)
That would be great, thanks
Currently: Not for a user.
The only way to block at instance level is defederation which is usually a bit extreme.This shouldn’t be too complicated to handle at the user level, but someone would have to spend time to develop it and contribute to lemmy source code.
Likewise, there are specific instances for which I’d want to auto-sub to all current and future communities, which is also not a fair that exists (other than creating your account there and browsing “Local”)
IMHO, Blocking at the user level is a feature that’s relatively likely to happen eventually.

There is sort of a workaround, though. Spin up your own personal instance, then you can federate/defederate with whomever you choose.
Out of curiosity how intensive is it to run a lemmy instance just for your own personal use?
Kinda curios if federation content from large instances (like lemmy.world and lemmy.ml) and serving pictrs hosted on your personal to said larger instances is resource intensive (bandwidth/cpu).
Tired of tankie pro ccp as well? None yet that I know of unfortunately.
For me, it’s all the porn
Exactly
I disabled nsfw content to fix that.
Yea but there’s plenty of NSFW content that isn’t porn that I want to see
Getting downvoted by authoritarian simps is always a win.
I don’t want all that drama, just want to browse dankmemes and retro games
Totally understandable. That’s the issue with echo chambers like lemmy.ml
They try to have normal communities to lure people in then bam, tankies everywhere and if you disagree you’re a racist bigot when all you were there for initially was innocent, apolitical memes.
I think they do it that way to indoctrinate people into their cult.
Just want to say that it’s lemmygrad.ml that is the tankie one. lemmy.ml is the dev-hosted instance
It’s both.
Someone mentioned lemmygrad.ml earlier but I can’t say I’ve actually noticed it (browsing all on sh.itjust.works, if that matters).
Too often it happens that the first thing on my feed is some edgie endorsement for communism and it’s always lemmy.ml behind it.
Thanks for the details though. Makes sense.
There’s a decent chance lemmygrad is defederated. For some reason browsing all on lemmy.world will occasionally pop up lemmygrad posts from a year or a few ago. Doesn’t happen on sopuli.xyz, my second account tho.
Also, might just be a few tankie communities on Lemmy.ml then, not the whole instance.
I think it’s the meme community specifically I’ve been noticing.
So, you got me thinking why .ml at all? So I googled it lol. Lead me to a thread on Reddit (lol) explaining the differences between an ML and a tankie. Tl:dr Marxist-Leninists aren’t completely down with kissing the boot of big government but really resonate well with socialism.
I’m sure I explained that terribly but I guess I’m happy to know the difference.
What’s sopuli.xyz like? I think I’ve seen a few users from there.
Edit: nevermind. Rule 3 of sopuli.xyz tells me it’s more of the same. I’m sorry but if you need to make an entire rule mentioning Nazis and Qanon then it’s probably because you spend a lot of time calling people those things because it gives you an endorphin rush.

Yeah. It’s the worst thing about Lemmy. As someone who’s relatively socialist, all it does is make actual socialists look bad.
Lemmygrad.ml and lemmy.ml are obnoxious.
The Connect app allows you to filter out an instance, but it also hides comments from any users logged in to that instance. Which cam be a bit distracting, though all you have to do is press a button to reveal them.
