Not how the instance blocking feature works. it's a common misconception because people don't read the docs and just assume it does what they think it does. From the News Section on Join-Lemmy:
It's not an alternative or replacement to defederation, not even close. I'm really surprised this misconception still persists even after widespread adoption of 0.19.x across the Lemmy network.
So you don't care about the instance you want to ban all the users from there. That's quite open minded and tolerant!
Honestly, I'm so weary of being open minded and tolerant. I just want to look at linux memes in peace.
You can block instances for yourself instead of blocking them for everyone.
Good lord. It's as though you haven't bothered to read any other comments in this thread.
Blocking instances yourself doesn't solve anything. At all.
Of course they didn't, they're just reactively replying to comments that trigger them hoping that the people they reply to also get triggered. They are a troll.
