Howdy, so while I’m able to block all posts from hexbear.net accounts, it seems there’s no way for me to block all their comments on instances they’re federated with. I’d rather not leave some of the communities that are still federated with them, but I would like to be able to block or hide all of their comments in the threads.

Is there any way to do this yet? Or do I just need to move to an instance that’s defederated from them?

    Connect for lemmy allows instance blocking. I don’t see any posts from hexbear and their comments show as hidden unless I tap to show the contents.

      Interesting, maybe I’ll make the switch. I’m on sync for now, and it’s in-app blocking features leave a lot to be desired

              Sweet fuck it makes you scroll past your individual block list that’s why I couldn’t find it

              Baffling design decision, saviour

                I completely agree. I feel like I have to traverse the entire menu system, which is also broken into different areas, to find some feature I’m sure must be there, I just haven’t found it yet.

        Just block it directly on the instance.

        I was on Memmy for the first months here, and instance blocking was not supported through the app, but I could do it on desktop, and it still worked as it was blocked on my account.
