or we can get cooperative model that is already present in a couple mastodon instances.

thanks, found those. I guess blocking an entire instance is still WIP

noob question, but where is the block UI

There's also the option if user-owned cooperative (like social.coop) - https://blog.opencollective.com/social-coop-a-cooperative-decentralized-social-network/

There are also some masto instances that have their own lemmy instances, funded through their existing funding structures - https://merveilles.town/about

they're also pretty open about this, it's not some dark secret.

if you're still on there, why would they leave?
