Recommendation to defederate from exploding-heads (lemmy.one)

That entire instance is infested with a massive amount of right-wing hate, transphobia, homophobia, and ugly political vitriol under the guise of "allowing free speech", rising to the same level or worse than lemmygrad (which we have already defederated from for obvious reasons). Please get this garbage off of the "all" page given that the entire instance actively breaks the rules of lemmy.one and is only providing them with a larger platform. I think a few trolls may have already spilled over.

just take a 20 second scroll through this mess or any of the other communities there: https://lemmy.one/c/[email protected]

Just block it, or go to Threads if you enjoy a sterile environment

All the downvotes to this comment are ridiculous. Everyone on this site has the ability to block any instance they want. Want "X" instance off your front page? Guess what, you can do that with the click of a button.

That's not a feature. If you want to block an entire instance, you have to appeal to an admin to defederate, or you have to run your own instance and add them to your blacklist

It's a feature on kbin.

Okay. This is a conversation about two lemmy instances

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

TIL. It kind of blows my mind that Lemmy doesn't have this feature. It seems like one of the first things you would provide to users when building something in the Fediverse.

True, but the important point should be that this feature is implemented elsewhere, so that should probably be brought over, giving users the ability to dictate the content they view.
