I don’t want any lemmy.nsfw posts on my All tab. And there are so many instances

    It’s called an “instance” and you can block them with apps like Connect or Boost.

    Supposedly Lemmy software should be updated now/soon to let you do it, in which case it would be in your Beehaw settings.

      Downside of doing that (at least in Connect), is that it will block comments from users on those instances as well. I blocked a few furry instances because I’m not interested in that stuff, but it ends up blocking quite a few innocuous comments in random threads. It’s less of an issue with the explicitly NSFW instances though.

        If you block an instance through the Lemmy UI directly, it only blocks all content posted to those instances. If a user from the blocked instance comments or posts in a community on a different instance, it’ll still show up for you

        In Connect there’s a “Blocked Instances Includes Comments” checkbox in your settings to block or show comments from blocked instances, under the Block List section.

      I don’t think beehaw updated, the newer versions had a few issues so they waited

    “a federation” meaning what? Lemmy lets you view, for example, only communities that are local to your instance. Otherwise you’re left with blocking individual instances.
