IIRC Lemmy doesn’t have a way of importing blocklists directly, so you’ll either have to whip up a quick script to do so or manually add things by hand, which is tedious and you will give up.
there’s a lot of collateral damage blocks even in tier 0. even the 100% blocklist has some non-starters, pawoo for instance DOES moderate their instance reasonably, they just don’t care about complaints written in english because people went out of their way to poison the well by reporting artwork as CSAM repeatedly, then got mad when they reported actual CSAM for once and got ignored for a little bit. (AKA the boy who cried wolf)
In other words, take other people’s block lists with a grain of salt unless they give actual screenshot examples of the posts an instance got blocked over.
Got a suggested blocklist handy?
https://codeberg.org/oliphant/blocklists/src/branch/main/blocklists. Feel free to pick a tier depending on the community you’re building. Tier0 is basically “the bare minimum” but you may want the others depending on the community you’re building up.

Yeah, if anyone has a list of known dicks it’d be good to get them out early.
