Is it possible to block entire instances? I see I can block by user or community, but not by instance.

This would be useful as there are some instances based around politics etc. that I don’t care about.

    This should be done on instance level but I’m not sure how I feel about that.

    If that is how it’s going to be, we will get a lot of small instances with each their own set of instance-blocking-rules. Some want the funny cat gifs instances but not the nazi instances. Some do not want the cat instances but do want the nazi instances but Als not xyz… Mayham

    In the end it will probably be like the way we interact with general websites: each user has their own set of websites they have bookmarked. Nobody is going through all the internet websites and sort by new.

      I think we’ll go the way of mastodon and email and have a few well maintained block lists for different groups.
