Discussion about the aussie.zone instance itself

founded 1 year ago
MODERATORS
 

I'm currently userhomed on aussie.zone and reading the All feed I see activity from an instance I have absolutely no desire to see any content from on any of their communities, but I do still want to engage in discovery via the All feed - can I block out this undesirable instance at all?

I'm using Jerboa, so I'm not sure if it's different in other formats. For me, on the feed if you see a post from a server you don't want to see anymore, you can click the three dots (...) on the bottom right, then there will be an option that says "go to (instance name)." From there you can click the three dots in the upper right corner and there is an option to block the whole instance.

What instance?

not sure if it's possible for a user to block whole instances. it's an option for instances to denylist or allowlist other instances to federate with.

you can for sure block other communities though, if you come across any you don't want to see. it's not perfect, but it's a start.

maybe if someone else found a way they can share it.

You can do the same thing from the webapp, it functions the same whether it's a user, ! community or instance.

It's funny isn't it, with a smaller global community I'm preferring to browse All and just block individual communities I'm not interested in, rather than opting in via subscription. I wonder how long that strategy will last!
