There is a substantial amount of spam and NSFW posts on the All page coming through already. Most NSFW posts aren’t being tagged as such and are coming right through. I am not sure how this can be weathered but we need something in place fairly soon, I feel like we are days away from rivers of bad stuff, especially via some of the federated instances.

EDIT: I personally don’t care much about the NSFW aspect, more in the lines of what a newcomer will be seeing when they get to the main page. 99% of the newcomers don’t know / care about federation and have no idea how to turn that off. Liability for the server owner is also an element of consideration.

      I think that this button defederate your content, not the content from other instances.

      if you want to block another instance, you can click on its domain name (between bracket) and block it. like you’ll block usual magazine

      you can also type this in your url to access a domain : https://kbin.social/d/name of the domain like kbin.social or lemmy.whatever

      then you can check the magazines and domains you blocked in your profile’s settings.

      but it’s still a bit buggy and need some work to work correctly.

        That federation button switched to “off” will not show content on home feed from the other instances.

        I had the same question and posted it in meta, a kind user let me know and it works great. I prefer kbin’s feed.

          it may have the same effect but it’s not the same feature. if you block domain, like you block magazine, you get to have an ensemble view of all those in your user settings. that kinda make sense.

          and I can’t find where the instances defederated with your technique are listed. maybe you know where?
