I can block instances. It takes like 2 seconds
Maybe your app lets you, but there's nothing in Lemmy that let's a user so this
I've blocked lemmygrad on connect, but their posts still show up on this community.
why block Lemmygrad?
Which app lets you block instances?
Connect for Lemmy lets you block instances.
I have heard a lot about the other apps, but this is the first time someone is using the same app as me! Connect is fuckin great!
Yep I'm using connect
Sync for Lemmy
Doesn't block comments
I thought you could only block communities?
Yeah I don't get why people get upset. Just block it if you don't want to see it.
That's fine for communities, but Lemmy doesn't actually let a user block an instance. Some let you hide instances, but that's still not helpful to desktop/browser users
True, good point.
Some people also use Lemmy on a PC. Also blocking instances in Apps just hides posts from there, but doesn't stop the comments.
