If they can get rid of all the extremist propaganda I'll probably go with them. So tired of places like Hexbear and Lemmygrad, they're 100% killing the fediverse.

I mean just go to a instance that blocked that BS, most did. Fuck them.

Still see hexbear crap on kbin and the blocking feature does not work for that instance and all of it's users specifically:(

I've seen exactly the same thing, it's crazy frustrating, and no one is answering mail from KBIN "support"

I got this reply from Ernest recently concerning spam and other things, including a coming major update. Want to talk about bugs...I couldn't see any of the replies to my post unless I opened it logged out/incognito. Let's appreciate that this barely alpha coding has been a lot more stable than the first days and wait to see what the update fixes and breaks.

Wait, what? I'm on kbin.social and I almost never see hexbear stuff. Why would blocking that instance not work? I blocked the grad like my second day here.

I blocked the .world and I still see posts from .world communities.

Choice of instance seems to matter quite a lot. I've never seen threads from either of those in my feed nor any porn.

Same here. I can only see the drama from afar because feddit.de is relatively strict in blocking other instances.
