Hello everyone,

Just wanted to post this announcement as I've seen a few people in an [email protected] (the more serious pendant to [email protected] ) complaining about the lack of filtering features for their feed.

It is now possible in your accounts settings, last tab, which shows users, communities and instances you block.

Hopefully that can be helpful to some people.

Good to know giving more of the blocking power to individuals instead of instance owners is good imo. Only issue is when someone inevitable starts distributing blocklists we start raisijg all sorts of questions about who what why etc that might be very difficult to solve

I think that blocklist will stay very user-dependent, except for obvious spam instances which should be blocked at the instance level. But we'll see how it goes.

I guess thats a bridge we can burn when we get to it. Wasnt there some drama with blocklists on mastadon tho?
