Comment on Is there a way to block hexbear

Yeah I think it’s about time to get that feature. As a user I have preferences that don’t necessarily match with the defederation policies of any instance and I would very much like to choose for myself which instances I want to see.

In my case: I’m not interested in polarising, divisive, toxic content and I really don’t care if it’s coming from the left or from the right. But it seems to me that I have to choose a side, because some instances are blocking the right wing extremism and some blocking the stuff to the left, but not both.

Reading subscribed communities only is not an option, because then I will miss out on new stuff. And blocking all these awful communities in “all” by hand is too much work.

tl;dr not being able to block instances as a user is giving me a bad Lemmy experience

The extremist propaganda has mostly killed the considerable excitement I had about Lemmy.

  It’s made me seen how many shortcomings Lemmy has and it’s soured me too.
  
  I just wanted a chill place like I saw when i left Reddit on July 1st and now it’s just become almost as toxic here.
  
  I can’t imagine people would have flocked to this site in July if this shit was happening back then.

    I think it’s even more toxic here, easily. I’m still here and hopeful about the fediverse, but at this rate the clock is ticking.
