  • it does block some things, it just doesn’t block everything completely. it’s more of a filter than a block, from what I understand.

    Does piefed instance block .ml?

    if you are on a piefed instance and block a domain, then every person and community from that domain is totally blocked. nothing any of their users post will ever appear to you, and none of their communities will ever show up. it’s a total and complete block of everything from them, everywhere.

    there’s also filtering options. for example, if I never wanted to see anything about Elon Musk, I could add a filter for Elon and Musk and then any posts or comments that mention those words could be either hidden or made so that they show up semi-transparent. I could make it so the filter only applies on the home page, or also in all communities.

    honestly, piefed is just a much better option than lemmy. it’s much more feature rich, and way more flexible than lemmy will likely ever be. the only downside is that there is only a couple mobile clients that have experimental support for piefed. the most popular is voyager.
