I think being able to block entire instances as users will solve this issue.

Like it or not, everyone is allowed a platform in the fediverse. I think users should have the means to block entire instances. If it’s just this community that’s bothering you, then you have the power to block it. Trying to defederate it is childish.

Good lord. These are the people wanting to control what others see. It’s insane the hoops they have to jump through to seem legitimate.

Just say, “I don’t like Trump and I don’t want anyone else to see support for him.” You’ll come across as more genuine.

If you don’t want to see it, you have the tools to block the community. Users should also have the ability to block entire instances. Instead of trying to push your agenda onto everyone else, maybe join an instance like beehaw that is already doing that. You’ll be much more welcomed there and won’t be ruining things for people who prefer to moderate themselves.

Great point! I think beehaw is a wonderful place for those who want others to dictate what they see. This solves the problem for everyone, except those who are going out of their way to push an agenda on others.

Nah. Beehaw just has an agenda to push. I’m glad they defederate though. I want nothing to do with those Nazis.

That’s fine, but understand you don’t speak for everyone. That’s why individually blocking users and instances is the right move. Falling down the path of dictating what others get to see is tyranny. Users should have the option to block entire instances as well.

It’s good to be able to block a community. Unfortunately, some children think they should get to dictate what others want to see. It’s also bad that users don’t have the ability to block entire instances.

Users need the ability to block entire instances. Problem solved.

Nah. Users need to ability to block entire instances. It’s crazy this is overlooked.

Unfortunately, users don’t have the option to block entire instances. We need to rely on our moderating overlords to do it for us.

Users definitely need the ability to block entire instances themselves. That way we don’t have to rely on others to do it for us or potentially block content we may want to see.
