Through apps before and the feature was added to lemmy v0.19
The app is fine but I'm also using webui so I would love the feature to be at the 'root' of Lemmy instead only in 1 app.
I read elsewhere that v0.19 will not bring complete instance blocking. Communities will be blocked but not the users, and it is the users and everything about an instance I want to block. I want to be able to black hole an entire instance, as if it and its users do not exist at all. I'm getting conflicting messages on the ability of v0.19 by several people and I am lost on what it will actually bring. I guess we will have to wait and see once v0.19 is out and we start using it.
I forgot about that tidbit of v19 not blocking the users.
Yeah, and it's the blocking of the complete user base of an instance that's what I truly want and seek.
Same. Instances are literally just a collection of users and they are the only reason to block one. I think the problem is the lemmy devs are mad everyone wants to block their pet communist instances because of the users there just generally being unpleasant people.
