1 instance, 3 communities, 91 users. I'm pretty reserved with the block button.
I'm one that doesn't tend to block anyone, unless it's outright obvious I just need to. I haven't blocked anyone on Lemmy, hoping I don't find any reason to do so.
I think one person blocked me though, oh well.
Spez blocked me from Reddit, but like who cares right?
Edit: Obligatory FUCK SPEZ!
My client doesn’t give me a number, but I would estimate it as at least equal to the number you have blocked. Comprised almost entirely of people who are trolls, spam bots, or generally incredibly unpleasant and not who I want polluting my feed.
I don’t think you should be embarrassed by it at all, instances themselves can easily be viewed as curated block lists, as any instance not filled to the brim with internet refuse is going to be blocking at least some instances (along with all the users on it). Adding a few hundred more to it is just fine tuning.
I block a lot of instances because they're specific to interests I don't care about. I've blocked 2 particularly obstinate users.
How do you find these numbers?

Edit #2:
BTW, this was easy to find in the default interface for my instance (Settings > Block tab) but I still can't find it on Photon. 😆
a few dozen, mostly hexbear users. Though that was mostly from when I started using Lemmy, I haven't felt the need to block anyone in a long time. My list of blocked communities is much larger.
8 users. Many communities.
