New Features

Instance Blocking is More Powerful

a.k.a Instance blocking works like it should at the API level.

When you block an instance in Lemmy, what you’re really doing is basically blocking all communities on that instance. You will still see posts to communities on other instances from users of the blocked one, and you will also still see them in the comments.

Not anymore (unless you like it like that).

There’s a new option (disabled by default) under Settings -> Filtering -> Hide Users From Blocked Instances that will let you hide any content by users from a blocked instance.

Like the “Hide Posts/Comments From New Accounts” filtering option, there are some different behaviors / safety mechanisms for mods/admins:

Even with the option enabled, content will still be shown under the following conditions:

  • You are a moderator of a community and the post/comment is to that community
  • You are a local administator, and the post/comment is to a community local to your instance

The comment counts will not reflect the hidden ones (similar to when you’ve blocked a user, you’ll see a higher count than is actually present).

    I wouldn’t read too much into it. Could be accidental, I’ve accidentally clicked buttons plenty while scrolling on my phone. Some apps have gestures that are pretty easy to trigger accidentally.

    There are also people that use the downvotes as their personal dislike buttons, typically browsing All/New on instances that use those subscribe to everything bots.

      Lol, true. I was just like “??? There’s lots of stuff in those release notes. If there’s something you don’t like, lemme know. I can change it back.😆” Completely forgot about drive-bys.

        I’ve scored something like -7 on some test post on my local test community, and I was like “what are you guys even doing here, I’m just trying to fix my instance!! it’s not my fault Lemmy upgrades like to break your database!”

          I usually set my test community to NSFW which seems to help. At least, the subscribe bots have left it alone when that’s set (sometimes I have to turn nsfw off for other tests).
