I definitely can block inetances, I did with one click. Maybe it's the app I use? (Connect)
I still see comments from it's users but they're behind a (comment from blocked instance) button.
I believe it's a per-app feature. After switching over to Eternity (Infinity for Lemmy) I had to do my Blocklist again. Also each app handles blocked instances differently, and I think connect does it the best with how it still shows the comments, but not posts.
Interesting. I use Jerboa, which makes it easy to block communities, but not entire instances. I'd check out connect, but I browse just as often in a desktop browser, so it would be really nice to have consistency.
It's not that big a deal to me, just a feature that would be nice to have imo
I don't see the blocked comments or posts with the Eternity app.
...But I also can't make my own posts yet....
Edit: wait... Not sure if it still shows comments from people on instances I've blocked.
Sync lets you block entire instances, and that includes the comments.
It's a cool self federation
