Connect for lemmy allows instance blocking. I don't see any posts from hexbear and their comments show as hidden unless I tap to show the contents.

Interesting, maybe I'll make the switch. I'm on sync for now, and it's in-app blocking features leave a lot to be desired
Voyager also has instance blocking if you wanna give that one a shot too.
Please for the love of God tell me how I've looked at settings menus and googled y and nothing of value comes up
omg lol
- Settings
- Filters & blocks
- Block instances
let me know if you want some screenshots
Sweet fuck it makes you scroll past your individual block list that's why I couldn't find it
Baffling design decision, saviour
I completely agree. I feel like I have to traverse the entire menu system, which is also broken into different areas, to find some feature I'm sure must be there, I just haven't found it yet.
You can allways block through the desktop site and it'll work.
Just block it directly on the instance.
I was on Memmy for the first months here, and instance blocking was not supported through the app, but I could do it on desktop, and it still worked as it was blocked on my account.
I'm using Connect and blocked both hexbear and lemmy.ml.
It's a peaceful life.
AFAIK, your home server would need to be fully defederated with an instance for you to stop seeing comments from users there. Instance blocking only blocks posts from there and I think communities hosted there. Only other way is to block those users individually which is a pain.
Locking as this post violates rule 5.
