Is there a way for the end users to pick and choose the instances they want to see or is it just down to the instance to choose? (lemmy.ml)

Curious about this one, I would like there to be a way for the end user to pick and choose instances that they want to see.

There is currently no such feature AFAIK. Hovewer, there is already an issue about blocking users and communities, so adding the ability to block instances shouldn't be too hard.

I think people want blocking instances more than anything for now. A lot of people want to be able to block lemmygrad.

All I'm saying is that if there was already some development done on them, it should be repurposed and/or extended to support blocking instances as well.

However, while I have seen the devs talking about implementing blocking users and communities here, I wasn't able to find an issue on github. (lemmy is also supposedly hosted on other git platforms, but I couldn't find the links; maybe the issue is on one of them?)
