How do I mute or block other instances? (lemmy.world)

Wanting to hide some of the nsfw instances or communities, but keep the nsfw visible option turned on.

Theres some news videos that are sometimes nsfw and i don’t want to filter those out, but at the same time, I don’t want to see a random nude when im scrolling through all, on the couch with my family around.

Anyone know what to do? Haha

If this is the wrong place to ask, I apologize! Any idea where i should be asking this?

Edit: So you can block communities on a personal level, but not instances. The ability to block instances on a personal level could be a future lemmy feature. https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/2397

site admin can do it on the Blocked instances list.

True, but i don’t want to ban it for everyone else, wish there was a way to mute instances on a personal level without making my own personal instance.

This would sure be nice--three checkboxes in preferenes 1) Block NSFW Insances 2) Block NSFW Communities 3) Block NSFW Content

Exactly, i would block 1 and 2 but a news or politics instance/community, will occasionally have a nsfw tagged post that i don’t want to filter out.
