All of this me too.

Also, all of reddit felt like lemmy.ml, but here I can block .ml easy peasy

[-] Speculater@lemmy.world 12 points 5 months ago

Blocking .ml is super nice. The only thing that is a bit annoying is that they have a lot of active members that don't mind supporting fascist twats. Yet they participate in the fediverse and are otherwise informative. I don't get notifications when they answer one of my questions. Oh well.

I'm digging the block.

Things have been more civil since I blocked the instance.

Isn’t it great when it’s up to you and not to some global platform-controlling entity?

[-] SorteKanin@feddit.dk 3 points 5 months ago

Just want to note that a user-blocked instance still influences your feed via voting. The only way to truly and entirely block another instance is to get your admin to defederate the instance.

But on the fediverse you can choose your admin or become your own admin, so that's still a lot better than reddit.
