I'm still seeing content from instances I've blocked, what's with that?

My best amateur guess is that you just blocked a sublemmy (lets call it that) instead of the whole instance.

A domain block isn't the same as an instance block. You can get content from an instance that's hosted on a different domain, so you will still see it. True instance blocking is a feature that's in the works
