I blocked about 15 people and it killed 99% of the noise. I'd like to hear from some of the folks who acct as hexbear ambassadors and aren't as annoying. Until instance blocking is a thing, blocking the loudest voices should go a long ways
I would vastly prefer this over the sh.itjust.works admins defederating from them. I don't like the people on Hexbear, but I also don't like admins getting to control what their users do and don't have access to.
Not practically possible for most people. Forcing users to jump through a bunch of hoops to have basic control over what content they have access to is not a winning formula for Lemmy.
Tonight is the first time I see their posts in my feed... They're a special bunch aren't they? Hopefully we get the option to ban whole instances soon

Meh, the whole point of Lemmy is that if you're not happy with what the admin is doing you're free to be your own admin.
