I do not know whether anybody else has already said this, but Lemmy could really use a feature that would allow individual users to block instances. I think it could have spared some of the defederation word wars that have been going on lately, since that would be an individual choice rather than a collective one.
Just a thought.

Glad to see that. Personally I really enjoy having my worldview challenged, but I can also get behind why others do not.
You want me to test the limits of that enjoyment? (Hint: you don’t. Trust me on this.)
I can do this through the Connect app? I blocked a porn instance that way (you do you folks I’m not into it).
Lemmy-client app can did this now. If you use iOS, you can try memmy. This app can filter keywords or instance.
It’s been requested repeatedly. Glad to see it’s on the roadmap.
@Masimatutu Agree with you, it definitely should be an individual choice rather than a collective one, instead of users having to decide which instance they want to be on based on whatever drama is happening currently.
If you’re a macOS user, try Leomard. Leomard has a client-side option to screen out specific instances from your view.
I hope there’s going to be a feature to block just posts from specific instance.
