Welcome to a tutorial on how to block .ml on your personal account.
In the top right corner of the top of the page, there are 3 horizontal white bars. Click it.
This will open up a drop down menu. At the bottom of that menu, you will see your username. Click it.
This will open another drop down menu with 3 options. Click “Settings”.
At the top of your screen you will see 2 tabs. Click the one that says “Blocks”.
Here you will see “Block user” “Block community” and “Block instance”. Click the down arrow below “Block instance”.
This will open up a search bar. Type “lemmy.ml” and click it after it shows up.
That’s it! You’ve blocked .ml and will never see content from the instance. Now you don’t need to make a feud post every day complaining about .ml and other instances you disapprove of. Think of all the time you will save!
But wait, we aren’t done yet in this menu. Click the down arrow under “Block user”. Now type “UltraGiGaGigantic” Make sure you select my .ml account as the other ones I no longer use. Thanks, appreciate it.
I don’t mind NSFW content - after all, it’s a broad category - I just don’t want a firehose of porn and gore. Some days that’s all that’s in my feed, and I have to open each one in turn to block the community.
Does this mean I have to go through blocking 9348934 communities by hand again?
Just block the instance, it gets rid of all the communities, but not users yet.
… you can’t block instances unless you’re self-hosting, though?

Check settings/blocks
Just remove the checkmark on “Show NSFW content” in your settings.

I think they mean as a self-hosting admin
I think they also really enjoy skimming through soo many communities ; )
As a self-hosting admin, they can just defederate the instance.
Also, they aren’t the admin of their home instance.
I’m not self-hosting.
