This was news to me and super helpful! In the Voyager app, go to Settings > Filters & Blocks. There will be a section called “Blocked Instances” and a button that says “Add Instance”. Click the button, and there is a search suggestion box, so you just type “hil” and the first result is “hilariouschaos.com” and you can just click that result and you’re done!
But doesn’t doing that in Voyager simply apply the base Lemmy instance block? If so then it merely mutes communities from it, but doesn’t block users from the instance from posting, commenting, responding, sending DMs, etc.
It’s not nothing, but it falls far short of expectations, especially for something called by that name.
If you use an app like Voyager, you can block entire instances. There are also web interfaces that allow it as well.
