Is it possible to block all communities on an instance but not the users? (piefed.social)

On lemmy when I came across a foreign language instance I would block it to hide their communities.

But on Lemmy you can still comments from users, and their posts in other communities.

However with piefed blocking an instance blocks everything.

You can choose allowed languages for content in your settings. Wouldn't that achieve precisely what you're going for? If you choose only English, only content with English marked as its language will be shown.

    What usually happens is that mods don't bother defining languages for their communities, which prevents automatic tagging. And of course it gets boring very fast to ask a lof of communities to update their settings.

    Not sure how to solve this.
