hello how do i block a whole instance?
Just go back to reddit if even this is intruding on your echo chamber too much lmao
nah i’m trying to read less about america and i found if i block all the china/russia/palestinian left wing progressives/hacks/activists the fediverse becomes quite a nice place
If paradise is an empty room.
Reddit and stormfront should be fascist enough for your tastes then. Just go back there. An open source community will naturally have slightly better people on average.
Ok so I figured out how to block a user but blocking an instance:

Leads me to:

Which suggests there's no way to do this :(
Again, just go back to reddit/stormfront
Libs when confronted with anything that slightly challenges their worldview
I think some apps allow it, not sure though. You can also move to an instance defederated from .ml if that instance is more aligned with what you'd like to see. You can also just subscribe to communities and not browse "All."
