@bgcarlisle Luckily all the heat seems to be towards Parler and some other random centralized services (I think I saw "Rumble" on there?) but yeah we'll probably still get some spillover.

I uhh honestly still have never figured out how to block instances from my instance but so far as a single-user instance that hasn't seemed to matter (see also: I should probably upgrade the server version I'm running someday...)

@bgcarlisle I would very much welcome that! But, it's worth mentioning I'm running Pleroma since I've never had success with anything Ruby and wanted to be able to get away with cheaper hosting while still running a full VM . . .

@bgcarlisle Also, when you find something, please also add it here:
fediblock.org
Because not all #FediBlock posts reach all instances, so it's good to have one big database of them. It helped me find quite a few of the really terrible ones so far, and I still need to go through it more thoroughly.
