Instance blocking no longer works? (lemmynsfw.com)

I blocked hexbear a long time ago, on my mtgzone and .world accounts, and recently I've seen posts from there on those accounts as if I hadn't.

Unsure if this is an app issue or platform issue. Are there caps to the size of block lists? I don't see a count for instance blocks, but I've blocked over 1000 communities.

I thought blocking an instance hides all of the communities on that instance? That's what I'm trying to achieve

    Yeah, it should be blocking the communities. Are you seeing the communities or just users of the instance?

    Example: clicking this highlighted link, then refreshing the page, I still see the post in question

    I've noticed this too and it seems to appear under certain conditions that I haven't figured out. It is infrequent but I think it's loading the "default" feed and that seems to disregard instance blocking. I've noticed this with only All but that's mostly what I view so perhaps it could affect other feeds.
