Is it possible to block an entire instance?

I’m noticing a lot of content I’m not interested in is coming from a specific instance. I started by just blocking the communities but I’m thinking it may be easier to just block the instance.

If that is even possible, what kind of effect might that have on my experience? Would I still be able to see comments and posts from users of that instance on other instances?

    I don’t think there is a way to do that.

    Right now the only way I know of is if the Lemmy instance your on blocked the other instance. But that would be site wide not just your account. Not really a good solution.

    The best option I can think of right now is what your have already done block all of the communities manually. Another option would be change your view settings on the main page from “All” to “Subscribed” or “Local” But this doesn’t help if you want to see everything but just exclude this one random instance.
