Mates, tell me your troubles
(lemmy.dbzer0.com)
Our little instance is closing to 6 months of operations and it occurs to me I never really asked for some open feedback from our peeps. So I wanted to start a discussion to see your concerns and comments in general. So tell me, in the context of the divisions by zero, what bothers you, what pleases you, what would you like to see improved.
Feel free to share your thoughts about anything.
Honestly I’m happy. Only thing I want now is lemmy 0.19 so I can block hexbear instances with a single entry, since I’m banned on the entire instance because a mod failed at reading comprehension.
Annoying af to not realize the post I’m seeing is from their instance, only for my comment to be eaten.
Nice, I was just wondering when that feature would be rolled out. It'll definitely cut down on people talking about blocking instances they don't like.
Wait, .19 will allow us to block whole instances?
Kinda. It’s detailed here, but essentially it blocks the instance communities and posts from showing up in your feeds, but users from that instance remain visible.
It’s like a quasi defederation at the user level.
That's pretty good tbh.
Agreed!
It’s especially useful for people like myself who are banned from an entire instance but still technically able to post comments because their instance keeps the comments cached on the local instance.
So I'll still have to see their obnoxious emoji, eh...
Yeah, I was hoping user level instance blocking would also block users from the instance. Hopefully the functionality will be added in later.
