MODERATORS
Do you know if there is a way to block instances from a community you have created? I made !vans@lemmy.world and I'd like to block the entirety of lemmygrad's crazy assholes from my community.
I don't think there is a way native to Lemmy for a mod to do that. You would have to talk to the instance admin you are on to defederate them at the moment. This might change in the future.
What you might be able to do is see if anyone has made a mod bot yet. Then you could configure the bot to ban anyone who posts from instances you don't like. So reactive bans instead of preemptive.
I've seen the first couple bots pop up so I would expect to see a mod bot pretty soon.
I might try to look into that, thanks. The only time I could ever imagine using that function would be for those fringe extremism instances.
