I've yet to see a single tankie here, but I think the instance I'm on has defederated from a bunch of instances so that might be why

Nope, not blocked. There's not actually that many of them, but they were one of the few established communities on Lemmy before the reddit explosion so I think they were disproportionately visible until everyone else started organically out-posting them.

Hi 👋 Nice to meet you. Welcome to Lemmy

I wish I personally could defederate from an instance while still using an account on a lemmy server. I've blocked at least a dozen communities from lemmygrad that showed up on my frontpage.

The app connect for lemmy on android allows for this right now, I believe it blocks posts and comments alike

There is probably also a browser extension, but I haven't really searched since I'm mostly a mobile user

yeah, but I'm guessing it only blocks from within Connect, right? I can't go to my web-based lemmy and have those blocked?

Browser extensions would be nice, though. If it were built into lemmy, you'd get it "for free" in every platform you use.

Its within connect, and they would probably be able to see your comments in a neutral instance. It is a temporary solution but I have been really pleased with it by blocking most porn only instances, at least its useful in that regard.

There was an issue on github asking for this but I dont know its status
