Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

It doesn’t have to be me making the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So how’s it going?

    Okay, I think I’m missing something really obvious, but how can I block an instance? When I go to their page via lemmy.nz there’s a word in the sidebar but it’s not clickable and if I load it directly there’s nothing I can see.

      Currently users can only block communities, not whole instances. But it is something that many people have requested so we may see it in future.

      When I go to their page via lemmy.nz there’s a word in the sidebar but it’s not clickable and if I load it directly there’s nothing I can see.

      Are you talking about “Block community”? This should work. It works for me.

        Honestly, community or instance would be good with me. I just checked on connect and there’s a button right there that did it instantly, while desktop is where I was getting stuck. I don’t mind switching to mobile for half a second if it’s going to save me frustration later.

          When you visit the page of a community, do you not see a great big red “Block community” button under where you join? It doesn’t show if you have joined the community or if you’re logged out, but otherwise it’s big and red and stands out for me.

            Well it’s working now, haha. The community that I was trying to block just had the text and no button. I’m blaming server load.
