Lemmy Client with Filter (lemmy.ml)

submitted 1 year ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

11 comments fedilink hide all child comments

I'm not sure where to ask this so I started here: here: Is there a Lemmy client that has a filter. I want to hide posts from particular accounts. Like anyone for hexbear, for example. I know I can set up my own instance, but that's more work than I want right now. I was hoping someone knew a client that could do this.

Hope they implement instance blocking at some point in Lemmy itself.

looks like the 0.19.0 backend will support it, but idk if it'll be exposed in the frontend yet https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/2397

Meh, that's not really what I want. This just doesn't show the communities from that instance.

But what I'd call instance blocking is blocking all the users from a specific instance. I've seen some brigading and trolling happen. And this would alleviate the need for defederation on an instance level.
