  It’s to block all posts from that instance, which I think is not enough.

    So it blocks all posts from that instance but not all users? What is the difference as I still see none of their users posts, which is the point isn’t it? I’m genuinely not understanding.

      You can still see their comments, unlike when your instance defederates from their instance. For some people, the ability to completely block all interaction with an instance is important.

        We’re talking Lemmy or Mastodon? Because I’m talking Mastodon.
