I hear ya. Quick question, do you dislike Beehaw? I'm considering whether it's appropriate to promote for vulnerable people to join safe spaces like that, or lemmy.blahaj.zone. Those instances will defederate swiftly from instances with similar concerns for safety. There are many instances that are not pomoted as safe spaces, and there are some that are, and I'm wondering if the question of defederation could be transferred to a recommendation to join a safe space and not an open space where no such safeguards are set due to a higher preference for free access? Let me know what you think.
Does vlemmy defederate anything? The Instances list doesn't seem to show any blocked instance.
I have thought of developing an anti-instance block, but since I would definitely not use it I haven't gone forward with it. But it seems quite an easy task, to be honest. A script would just go over any post or comment, check the community's instance, check the poster/commenter's instance, and if any of the two match, it can simply do node.deleteNode() and that's it, ez pz. It'd probably take me less than an hour to do this.
