I’m not sure what’s going on over there, but half the time I see a post from there or go into a comment section and it’s just…bad. Like old reddit the_donald bad. Constant trolling, etc. You TS just really bad vibes. I’ve been blocking the communities as they come up, but I’m not sure what else I can do.

    You can filter out instances with Ublock Origin for desktop and Sync for mobile. This will remove any posts and comments from users from that instance. It’s a lot easier than trying to get your instance admin to defederate a major instance or setting up your own while still getting rid of hexbear for you

          Thanks! For anyone that wants something that will block posts and comments do the following in uBlock Settings -> My Filters:

          your.instance##.post-listing:has(*:matches-attr(href=/.*@blockedinstance\.domain/))
your.instance##.comment:has(*:matches-attr(href=/.*@blockedinstance\.domain/))

          In this case from blahaj to hexbear:

          lemmy.blahaj.zone##.post-listing:has(*:matches-attr(href=/.*@hexbear\.net/))
lemmy.blahaj.zone##.comment:has(*:matches-attr(href=/.*@hexbear\.net/))

          Edit to add this will also make sure it doesn’t remove posts that just have the instance in the title, just posts from the instance.
