How to block another instance to curate your Lemmy experience

Meta community. Discuss about this lemmy instance or lemmy in general.
Timely info, thanks!
Bye bye hexbear...
I sought out and discovered this feature existed only last week right after I wondered if I could block all of hexbear.
Blocking an instance only blocks the communities and you have to block the users individually when they post on communities of other instances.
I'm hoping for an additional option to block all users of an instance to be added.
I would like to have an option that works like the instance block feature on connect. It blocks the instance and then puts a "comment hidden due to blocked instance: exampleinstance.net" which lets you know that its there and gives you the option to unhide that comment if you want to know what it says.
You also need to block everyone from Hexbear. I don't have the same reaction to everyone from ML (though I have that instance blocked too), but after I interact with them, they usually get blocked anyway.
fun fact: they can't reply back to you if you block them. I only found that out because I would get errors trying to reply to people who hate me.
There's about 15% of .ml that is unaware, and are pretty regular. And then there's the rest that make you go, "oh... Hm...."
