You know that you can block instances yourself? Like you don't have to be forced to see their stuff. I think some of y'all enjoy whinging about shit for the sake of it.
If you block an instance, you can't spend the next sixty posts complaining about the replies.
I'm fine with hex, for the most part. This is a joke, in the jokes about the fediverse community.
Blocks don't hide your posts from them or prevent them from responding to your comments.
And?
Seeing "there is no record of this comment" in a chain brings me sexual pleasure.
Die in your hole, person I disagree with!
Plus you still get to see the replies to the comment, usually them being dunked on by other Lemmings.
You know that blocking an instance does not block users from that instance?
But it blocks all posts that are posted to communities on on that instance, so it guts 90% of the shit you don't want to see. Just block users when they piss you off.
The constant posting of hatred towards other instances is just as if not more annoying to me than the dumb shit hexbear comes out with.
But it doesn't block votes, so their users will still influence your feed.
It's not that I don't want to see them, it's just I don't want to waste my time replying to anything when anything other than "DAE hate westoids?" gets deleted right away.
Let me try that. Quick, reply to me now.
Hey, it works!
What did you do I tried to block them and I still see them. I just wand to block them and grad.
Blocking instances only blocks posts from them, not comments.
You should check piefed (piefed.social , join.piefed.social) it has support for lemmy and proper instance blocking.
I love piefed I'm just waiting for a mobile app then I'll switch over totally. Doesn't even have to be good just something.
Whats interesting about piefed is that everything is prerendered - it doesn't use an api, unlike lemmy. Of course, an api is in the works, and the dev of thunder made a PoC.
I had no idea everything was pre-rendered. That's super interesting
I use the Alexandrite version of lemmy.world (https://a.lemmy.world/) and in that you have a hamburger menu at the end of the persons comment, one of the options is block.
I think you can block an instance in your user Settings - Block - Instances.
If you're using a phone app, it's going to vary depending on the app.
Voyager has it in the filters section down the bottom of the page.
