    I wish I personally could defederate from an instance while still using an account on a lemmy server. I’ve blocked at least a dozen communities from lemmygrad that showed up on my frontpage.

      The app connect for lemmy on android allows for this right now, I believe it blocks posts and comments alike

      There is probably also a browser extension, but I haven’t really searched since I’m mostly a mobile user

        yeah, but I’m guessing it only blocks from within Connect, right? I can’t go to my web-based lemmy and have those blocked?

        Browser extensions would be nice, though. If it were built into lemmy, you’d get it “for free” in every platform you use.

          Its within connect, and they would probably be able to see your comments in a neutral instance. It is a temporary solution but I have been really pleased with it by blocking most porn only instances, at least its useful in that regard.

          There was an issue on github asking for this but I dont know its status
