Just avoid Lemmygrad and hexbear. Those are Cancer
Lemmy.ml was no different back then
Glad it got better
Did it? lemmy.ml is still federated with those instances.
I appreciate being federated, it gives me a chance to down vote them.
Which counts for nothing
Apparently my instance disables downvoting...
That's the only real downside. I just hope user-based ignore/block function for instances instead of just communities would become a thing.
Yeah. It'd make things a lot easier. Today I made a mistake and got into a discussion with the tankies from hexbear. Don't recommend. Will call you a nazi for not agreeing with their every statement.
Edit: Not all of them of course. Tho, I'd say that the most uses ad personam as an ultimate argument.
It already is on Connect? I blocked both instances, so no posts from either show in my feed and comments from users on those instances on other posts appear as "blocked by an instance filter," which you can choose to show it if you want
I meant in the account, not a third party app.
