Many newer Lemmy users still don’t know they can block users, communities, and even whole instances they may not want to see in their feed or interact with.
This is a very basic guide to doing this on lemmy.dbzer0.com using the default web UI.
- Open your profile
Settingspage:
- Switch from the
Settingstab to theBlockstab
- From this page you can block by
User,Instance, orCommunity
That’s all there is to it.
Edit: No offense to !truecomics@midwest.social for appearing in my community block list. It’s just there as a (hopefully) inoffensive example.
You can also do it for individual users or communities from their respective landing pages after clicking on their name (or sidebar for communities) which often time is more intuitive to do immediately when you run across some particular bad stinky bullshit.
Good point, thanks.
And the easiest way to handle blocking in many apps too, quick and easy peasy.
