How do I block an entire instance?

I'm getting really really sick of blocking dozens of communities from lemmynsfw every single day. It never ends ffs.

If I want porn, I'll go looking for porn. It shouldn't be every third post in my feed.

Honestly, how is anyone supposed to join Lemmy if they all just get flodded with mountains of porn??? I can't imagine anyone that's not already invested in being here wanting to join. (unless their looking for a pornhub alt I guess...)

Not everything NSFW is porn and I'm not looking to remove non-porn so permanently hiding everything tagged NSFW isn't a solution.

Yeah. Not to mention I'm completely fed up with the amount of furry bullshit. Every time I block the new niche furry community another one pops up. Be into whatever you want but honestly there needs to be some moderation. You don't need this many separate furry porn subs. It's insane.

Do I use lemmy wrong? I browse my local instance, and I subscribe to communities from other instances, and when I browse I do local or subscribed. I never see furry shit. Is this coming from browsing "all"?

That's mostly where I see this kind of stuff, on "all" which is great for discovering new communities and getting out of the "echo chamber".
