Many newer Lemmy users still don’t know they can block users, communities, and even whole instances they may not want to see in their feed or interact with.

This is a very basic guide to doing this on lemmy.dbzer0.com using the default web UI.

  1. Open your profile Settings page:

  1. Switch from the Settings tab to the Blocks tab

  1. From this page you can block by User, Instance, or Community

That’s all there is to it.

Edit: No offense to !truecomics@midwest.social for appearing in my community block list. It’s just there as a (hopefully) inoffensive example.

    A lot of us are of the opinion that they’re just falsely claiming to be Marxists.

    It primarily comes from a specific instance though and they’re slowly becoming more and more isolated. If you stick to the defaults on .world, you may not see them that much. Say something about China though and they’ll find you.

      Yeah. Some are real Marxists. I disagree but respect and appreciate them, they’re welcome here. A huge chunk are fake accounts run by the Kremlin or CCP.
