there is a rightwinger instance constantly showing up in my feed and blocking users/communities one by one is getting a bit annoying :/

Can't you block or mute instances yourself?

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Right now it's only possible to block communities and users, no way for a user to block an entire instance.

Weird. Users should be able to block or mute instances.

In other comment they linked to the issue for the devs to fix/add.
Being something inspired in Reddit I was expecting to have that already, I like games but I don't care about a lot of the trailers or games so hidding them would really help clear my feed without blocking an instance or a user (specilly when it's the main user posting news and trailers in general, I don't want to block them).

Yeah!! Mastodon has that and its very useful!

Yep! Same! That feature is definitely instrumental in my generally pro free speech position when it comes to Fediverse moderation. Bad actors usually tend to clump together in tight-knit instances.
