    You’re safe from the big bad scary communists on Lemmy.

    Kbin.social doesn’t defederate lemmy.ml, so either way we’re playing by their “don’t say Uyghur genocide because we don’t think it’s real and we will ban you based on that belief” rules if we accidentally stumble into there.

    This is where I would like to see individual-level instance blocking so that it doesn’t show up in the home feed, same as how I can block everything that pops up in a language I don’t speak.

    Edit: Turns out we have that! Just found another thread showing how. On kbin, it’s possible to view entire instances separately, and there’s a “block” button similar to individual magazines/communities/users. To see lemmy.ml, the link would be

    https://kbin.social/d/lemmy.ml

    but replacing the lemmy.ml part with any instance should take people to that instance just the same.
