This doesn't seem to be an app setting but something lemmy.word is filtering. What's the point of hiding but not blocking, and why this filter at all?

I heard Lemmy modding is "open", so is there some way to track and see why something like this is done?

Edit: see comments, it was actually an app setting but not something I changed/applied myself.

If you are using the connect app, this is because you blocked the reddthat instance. You can access your settings to see blocked instances/communities/users.

I checked again and you're right! I was looking under the filters heading but there's a separate block list heading.

I didn't actively block reddthat but I accidentally setup an account name and deleted and replaced it...I think deleting the account might have added reddthat to the block list, maybe?

Same happened with me. I blocked an instance without realizing. My guess is that it's either a bug when block instance was being implemented or I just stumbled on the wrong option, since they are close to each other.

You might want to edit your original post to correct this, then.

I wish there was a way to still see comments from those that you blocked, I don't care about those. I just don't want to see posts from blocked instances on my feed
