  That’s not how federation works. Blocking an instance doesn’t block the users of the instance, at least not right now or by default. Maybe don’t call people morons when you’re the one that doesn’t know how something works?

    That’s just stupid, it should work the way it does on Mastodon and Misskey and actually block the instance.

      That makes you a moron too since you’re using “such a janky website” just like us, right?!

        I use and test just about every single ActivityPub instance. For Lemmy you need accounts that post and can reply to anything, and others that block everything. I do not receive Lemmy posts through the jank frontend you describe. I use RSS which allows regular expression filtering out users from instances I want to mute, and Misskey and Mastodon which actually mute entire instances and languages.
