For instance, can I block posts made to specific groups from my feed? Apologies, I’m a Reddit refuge and there’s a bit of content I’d rather not have to weed through.

Hello fellow refugee, although I'm on android I'm assuming it'll be somewhat similar. But it'll take me a click or two on the community name itself, and usually on the top right there's the three dot drop down menu. Connect app shows one of the options as "block community", and Liftoff app shows as "block [community name]". I'm still scrolling through "all" and seeing what I want to keep or not, so I've yet to hit refresh. But hope that somewhat helps.

I’m using an app called “WefWef” it’s very much like Apollo for Reddit. I don’t have that option though. I’m sure they’ll get around to to.

It’ll get there. I really like what I see so far. Very much like Apollo.

Try Memmy, at the moment it has more features built in. And it has good ux I just checked wefwef and it doesn’t seem you can block communities right now

I can't speak for wefwef, but I can confirm that the functionality exists within Lemmy. On desktop, and on Jerboa or Connect on Android, I see the option to block communities.
