So this post from lemmynsfw.com just popped up in my feed. It is not tagged as nsfw although it obviously is. I have tried attaching a screenshot but Jerboa throws an error. I have nsfw material turned off in my account settings, so this wouldn't happen if the post would be tagged properly. I'm using Jerboa. I could just ban the whole community but it is not the solution in looking for, because the ban works on app level and I have separate accounts for separate needs. Also banning the community is a reactory move and I would need to repeat that for every offending community in the future. That means that my feed would still be getting occasional nsfw material. Please advise.

Of course you can block communities in Jerboa. But not instances, as OP wrote. That just isn't a feature in Lemmy.

Blocking communities sucks because more and more pop up. I'd love to block the entire instance.

Connect has the ability to block instances.

It's the best app that I have tried so far to replace Relay for reddit.
