Can I block everything from lemmit.online? (lemm.ee)

So I love using lemmy, but I browse all a lot in order to discover more communities as Lemmy is still growing a lot.

However, I’m really annoyed with the lemmit.online bot. For those unfamiliar, users can request the bot to automatically x-post popular post to Lemmy. The annoying thing is that these posts are almost never interacted with as they are clearly marked as bot posts.

I can’t seem to find a way to block the user account or lemmit.online as a whole.

Anyone face the same issue and have a solution?

EDIT: I didn't see I was in the Memmy community.. whoops! Still the advice remains generally valid 😅

It depends on the front end you are using, but generally speaking clicking/tapping on the username should bring you on the profile, where the block option is. It could be hidden behind some submenu/hamburger menu/three dots. But it should be there. Worst case the app you are using has not implemented it yet: try to take a look on the web interface and do it from there.

I blocked the bot days ago and being only it doing the reposting I'm basically not seeing the instance anymore.

The Nuclear option is to go in your profile and disable the bot accounts, but that would make invisible to you all the account marked as bots, which can be overkill.
