Currently no. Still needs to be implemented by Lemmy.
The PR for the necessary back-end changes is out for review on GitHub: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/3869
Oh that's cool!
Oh hell yeah, thanks for sharing
It is if you're on kbin. Instructions here.
Damn, yet another cool thing kbin has that I didn't even know about.
I really hope more instances adopt this feature.
Thank you very much!
Memmy has a broken implementation of instance filtering that currently needs to be configured on every startup, but it exists. Hopefully it will eventually be meaningfully functional. Precisely for the instance you mentioned.
outside of running your own instance, asking your instance's owner to block them, or joining one that already has the offender on the blocklist, no. It's requested a lot though so it's probably on the todo list
What did you find out about hexbear?
Not OP, but from what I can tell it's a Communist/Leftist instance heavy on the shitposting. Hard to tell what there is ironic and what isn't, but I guess if you really hate Tankies it wouldn't be your favorite instance.
Yeah, I noticed posts from it last night and looked around, it's.. Confusing, I don't really understand their position even after reading their description.
I just looked, and I think it’d be more accurate to call it a Neo-Bolshevik cesspit.
(I don't know what those words mean)
Have a look at available lemmy clients. Sync for example has a filter feature to block either an instance, a community or user straight from a post.
If you're on android, use sync and block instances you don't like
I’m using Memmy and there’s an option in the settings to block a specific instance or an instance with key words.
I’m in the same boat 🥴
