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.

    Yeah user level control for instance blocking is something we need unless instances start sharing defederation lists.

    Blocking communities isn’t the same because it only hides posts and not the bad users interacting elsewhere

      Oh I didn’t mean blocking users, to me a user’s home instance is a matter of convenience and not a cross for them to bear as a member of some perceived village.

        They can always choose an instance which aligns with better behavior if they don’t really belong to the bad ones
