      The instance blocking in .19 only blocks posts from an instance, not comments.

        That is what I would want. If Lemmygrad users want to come to other instances, follow the rules, and engage in civil discussion, I would love to hear from them. I don’t care what instance a user uses to log in. I just don’t want to see their posts in my feed.

    I also wouldn’t mind filtering posts from users belonging to certain instances. But maybe blocking instances will be enough.

    Certain apps offer this feature but lemmy itself doesn’t yet, I believe they’re working on it but had some issues implementing it

      The only gripe I have with connect, is it’s zoom function. It either zooms way too far, or barely at all.

    You can with kbin, and I think something was said about it in the upcoming lemmy release.

      Kbin doesn’t have instance blocking (yet). It has domain blocking. But if you block a domain, you block all of the text posts and image posts since they point to that domain. But you will still see the link posts since they point somewhere else.

      Kbin’s instance blocking didn’t seem to be working for a while, instead it blocked users of instances at random (a few times I’ve seen a thread from a blocked instance but none of the comments from said instance show up).

      It might be working (better) now but it’s hard to tell exactly when it is or isn’t. Same with the language filter. Though random posts/threads (sidebar) doesn’t use filtering.

      EDIT: Yeah, I think instance blocking only blocks users of that instance, as if a user of one instance posts on a blocked instance their post still shows up. Or close, I guess it’s the domain that matters as someone else pointed out.
