The feed desperately needed a fix, so I’m glad they pushed it out. But agreed, they should be prioritizing methods to reduce spam and bots in the next release, even if they need to push out a relatively feature-sparse version first

This is a lot of work if you’re just trying to browse the site. Instead of spending hours blocking instances after first checking whether an instance is mostly bots (and safe to block) or if it’s just a single group of bots in an otherwise fine instance in which case you block the users, a general list like OP suggested would be more useful.
