there is a rightwinger instance constantly showing up in my feed and blocking users/communities one by one is getting a bit annoying :/

    defederation should be kept to a minimum and saved for big offenders only. I think best option is for lemmy to have an option to hide posts from some instances on a per user basis.

      I agree with this. Everyone keeps saying that it doesn’t matter which instance you sign up with, since everything is federated. But my biggest concern is thriving communities potentially getting cut off from the rest of the fediverse because they unluckily got created on an instance that has a bad reputation for something completely unrelated. Allowing users to individually hide entire instances for themselves seems like the better approach.
