On a tangent, is it possible to block/ignore lemmygrad and it's users? They are obviously trolling here with good old whataboutism and russo talking points

Edit: corrected the stupid spelling of this stupid place

In Voyager I can block instances in the settings. Not sure if thatโ€™s only voyager/specific apps or if thatโ€™s a Lemmy default.

Besides that, migrating to an instance that has defederated from lemmygrad also works. Iโ€™m on lemmy.world and Iโ€™ve never seen anything from 'grad.

Ditto. Iโ€™m using this instance right now and I have never seen any of them so why donโ€™t you come on over here? Itโ€™s nicer.

You can always check the /instances endpoint of every lemmy server to see its blocked instances.

If you are using the Connect app for Lemmy, you can block Hexbear and Lemmygrad in the settings. I did that as well.
