You can't block instances but you can block the lemmy.ml and hexbear.net magazines, which are all tankie hell.

I'm gonna keep .ml blocked for as long as they are federated with hexbear, they are annoying as fuck. Also lemmy.ml is super pro-china so it is pretty tankie, might have changed with the reddit migration, but, eh.

It was my impression that lemmy.ml is lemmgrad with a mask on, to pass as somewhat reasonable to the rest of the fediverse. On lemmagrad they just spew their bullshit with no filter.

You're probably right, they probably bought the .ml domain to refer to marxism-leninism .
