Is there a way to block instances on the app? [Solved, you currently can't] (lemmy.world)

I see random posts from lemmynsfw that aren't marked nsfw and it's quite jarring. Can I block the whole instance?

Edit: I should've googled first, there's an open GitHub issue:

There is currently no way in Lemmy to block and entire instance as a user. Only the admin can do that.

Connect allows this. I don't know how specifically, but it's possible on Connect

It would have to be client-side filtering. Just fetching and then not displaying affected posts and comments.

I haven't tried blocking an instance on connect but I find blocking communities can be hit or miss. I block all the nsfw ones and refresh and see the same posts I just tried to block
