(Lemmy) blocking an instance while subscribing to a community on that instance yields an empty community in c/bugs@sopuli.xyz
[–] 2 points 1 year ago

Right, which is why Lemmy should optimally implement some firewall-esque whitelist/blacklist system instead of the blunt tool that is in place now. Users would get the full/fine control over their feed that you want, but implemented in a way that should confuse no one.

With that said, the fact that you currently still see comments from users on blocked instances is definitely a bug. Regardless of the outcome of this (whether a blacklist/whitelist system is added, your suggestion is implemented, or Lemmy filters just continue working like this forever), that needs to be solved.

    Nothing. It makes sense to me that blocking an instance would block EVERYTHING from that instance. The "Subscribe" button on should probably currently be disabled on all communities on a blocked instance. To me, a block is a block. If someone wants to block something but allow a certain subset of that blocked thing, there needs to be some whitelist/blacklist system instead of the simpler "it's either blocked or it isn't" settings available right now.

    This current behaviour does make the most sense to me. But I think it was the Tesseract dev who was experimenting with a "soft block" system that would provide the behaviour you want. You would be able to set a full instance block on the instance that works exactly as it does today, or you could instead set a soft block on it that allowed you to whitelist particular communities/users that you would still like to see.

    We have something big coming (frame.work)
     

    It’s been a very busy year at Framework, and we’re not done yet! We launched a new Framework Laptop 13 and two new product categories with Framework Laptop 12 and Framework Desktop. We’ve got one more big update for you, and you can tune into our YouTube channel August 26th at 8am PT to see what it is!

    Get notified

    This is the first time we’ve done this kind of YouTube-first launch, and we’re excited to see what you think of it. Our video content over the last year has been mostly launch focused, but you’ll be seeing a lot more soon across both YouTube and Twitch. You can subscribe to each to get notified when we go live or post something new.

    We continue to get awesome feedback on Framework Desktop, with additional reviews going live and the first orders reaching Batch 1 customers. ETA PRIME shared an excellent video on using Bazzite to make it a killer gaming system. Luke Miani did a head-to-head against Mac Mini and Mac Studio. Boiling Steam wrote a great overview of building a Fedora 42 workstation starting from a Framework Desktop Mainboard.

    Our factory is fully cranked up and outputting both Framework Laptop 12 and Framework Desktop systems as quickly as possible to fulfill all of the pre-order batches. July was a record high month for manufacturing volume for us, and we hope to beat that again in August! If you’d like to help us on this (and other parts of remaking consumer electronics), we’re growing the team too. Check out our careers page and let us know if you know anyone amazing!
