There is a substantial amount of spam and NSFW posts on the All page coming through already. Most NSFW posts aren’t being tagged as such and are coming right through. I am not sure how this can be weathered but we need something in place fairly soon, I feel like we are days away from rivers of bad stuff, especially via some of the federated instances.

EDIT: I personally don’t care much about the NSFW aspect, more in the lines of what a newcomer will be seeing when they get to the main page. 99% of the newcomers don’t know / care about federation and have no idea how to turn that off. Liability for the server owner is also an element of consideration.

    I think that this button defederate your content, not the content from other instances.

    if you want to block another instance, you can click on its domain name (between bracket) and block it. like you’ll block usual magazine

    you can also type this in your url to access a domain : https://kbin.social/d/name of the domain like kbin.social or lemmy.whatever

    then you can check the magazines and domains you blocked in your profile’s settings.

    but it’s still a bit buggy and need some work to work correctly.

    EDIT: this doesn’t block the instance, but only the domain. new tool coming soon, confirmed by the main dev:

    domain blocking existed long before federation. It serves as a way to block sources like youtube.com, spotify.com. Blocking instances will be a separate option in the user profile soon. I will submit a pull request.
