Hi, I know it might sound a bit extreme but is there a way to block every users from specific instances ? Someting like "*@shitty.instance.com" ?

I know it's possible to block instances, but you can still see comments from their users.

If you block an instance, all that instance's users - posts, comments up/down votes - disappear completely. At least that has been my experience.

Thanks for the answer, so either I have a bug or I've blocked the wrong instance (with a close name)

Edit: I've checked, the instance is correctly spelled, I'll try clearing cache / reinstalling

I'd think your best bet would be to join an instance that has defederated from the one you don't want to see.
