I would be on here more if you could block entire instances. If its possible at this point, its not as straight forward as mastodon.
Some of the apps can do that (Connect for one), but it isn't a core Lemmy feature yet.
Lemmy v0.19 will have this feature
Yeah I wish I could silence the star trek instance. I don't want to block them though, they're nice people. I just have never watched star trek so I have no idea what any of their posts mean, so having them in my feed is not desirable.
Now I understand how my friends feel when I talk about Halo lore.
When you first saw Halo, were you blinded by its majesty?
Blinded?
But yes absolutely. I vividly remember the first time I saw that menu at a friend's house. Actual core memory for me
I love star trek, so I love that instance, but Lemmy.world feels like its replicating the toxic discussion style from reddit. I'm not here because I loved reddit but hate what they did to it. I have hated reddit for years, I am here for a completely different thing from reddit. The slrpnk instance and the Lemmy.ml are the main instances I want to interact with. If there are other anarchist instances in the future, I'd like to interact with those, but ideally keep the toxic bullshit to a minimum.
For sure no disrespect to star trek fans. I've just never watched it. I don't want to block the people I just want to filter out the memes I don't understand.
You can do that on the Connect app for Android.
You do this in sync as well
