@CogitoErgoBloom be careful, because the spam problem on Lemmy is a bit different from the spam problem on Mastodon (and other microblogging systems).
It is sufficient that the Lemmy user IS NOT SUBSCRIBED to a community to not see the contents of that community.
The Mastodon user, on the other hand, sees the contents of all second-level contacts and everything that is re-shared by first-level contacts.
For this reason, unless an instance is chock full of trolls and shitposters, I don’t recommend blocking or muting an entire instance.

Here you can find a guide to Lemmy in Italian dedicated to both Reddit refugees, Mastodon or Friendica users, and those entering the fediverse for the first time through Lemmy.
With a good translator it should be clear enough…
@Quilly @lealternative @mobileatom for a user coming from Reddit, Lemmy’s interface is much more intuitive, but Kbin wanted to target a different niche.
Unfortunately, there are few instances, but they are almost all for testing, except for the developer’s (today it is a bit overloaded).
I can’t judge from architecture point of view, but I think Kbin may have some dB boost problem, since Kbin users can also follow other users.
The Kbin instances however are all here: the-federation.info/kbin

@fisco1791 @lealternative Feddit is the more natural name. We chose it without knowing that a famous German instance had already existed for some years and, for some time now, there has also been a Danish one!
Still, the name Lemmy makes everyone understand that the Fediverse doesn’t like marketing but passion… 😀
@DJetelina @finickydesert In reality there is nothing difficult at all: it is more difficult to explain than to do!
Lemmy is software like mastodon and you may not even know that a lemmy community is a lemmy account. For example, a fediverse community is @fediverse , one on lnux is @linux@feddit.it , while a privacy community is @privacy.
To open a thread you must follow the chosen community and write a message like this:
Title with less than 200 characters (possibly without hashtags or mentions
Community mention
An explanatory text or your opinion where you can put mentions or hashtags
Link to the article or post
Here you find a repository with all Lemmy communities from all over the world and in all languages: browse.feddit.de/
If instead you want to subscribe to a Lemmy instance you will have better visibility on the structure of all threads and you will also be able to moderate the communities created by you
@finickydesert Impossible! Mastodon is probably too busy creating a fediverse group management system that is incompatible with any other Fediverse software that isn’t mastodon… 😁 😄 🤣
@fediverse
@CogitoErgoBloom @lealternative @jakob @fishidwardrobe You are right. Blocking an instance is a last resort, but sometimes there’s nothing else you can do. After all, if a user remains inside a problematic instance, it means that it too is problematic.
