My instance is quite liberal and not many instances are defederated. But there are some instances I don’t want to see at all, like containing NSFW content.
While I can block any unwanted communities, it requires me to go to all of them one by one and block.
Can i somehow block all instance communities?
Not sure about Lemmy, but you can block entire instances if you use kbin.
For example, you can block the tankie instances by:
Navigate to these 2 URLs and block the entire domain from the sidebar.
Why the hell is it /d/ and not /i/ (for instance)?
Perhaps the /d/ stands for “domain”?
I suppose.
It does not seem to work properly though. I just got another thread from that furry instance. Guess I have to manually block all communities.
I’m not aware of a way to do that without running your own instance, but I’m curious: Would it not work just as well to subscribe to the communities you want, and set your feed to show only those?
Yeah, I use subscriptions for most of the things. I just like to still browse “All” to see what’s trending, I just have few instances that I’m sure that I don’t want to see there.
Also for example I have NSFW disabled, but I still sometimes see SFW posts from those instances and I don’t want that.
We do have that ability on kbin instances if this is a big enough problem to move over here.
