sh.itjust.works Main Community

any time i see a weird gif reaction i just block.

it gets repetitive, but that's the way it is for now.

at some point i might just move away from shitjustworks to an instance that actually cares.

As a stop gap, I've just blocked all their communities.

With sync for lemmy you can block instances by adding it to the instances filter.

Not that I know of, but it should be added in for those who don't want to interact with people from Hexbear. If people have the freedom to block an instance for themselves it would expand the decentralization that Lemmy is built on, since people don't have to move to those instances to block out Hexbear.

I've read that blocking the Hexbear domain is a solution to this, but that isn't a proper solution, since those who aren't tech-literate would have a pretty hard time doing that, so a first-party solution would be the best.

It currently depends on which client you're using. The devs are working on building it into the server side, but at least 'connect for lemmy' on android allows you to block instances yourself.

I can’t see hexbear posts and I was told it’s because my instance is lemmy.world

I kind of like it just for the batshit, teenage-level stupid takes but I wouldn't be sad if they went away.

If you are on browser using unlock origin, you can use custom cosmetic filters like sh.itjust.works##div.post-listing:has-text(/hexbear.net/). Not perfect and does not hide comments, but I've been happy enough with just this.

You'll have to block the communities one by one. But it's not that many, blocking the 10 biggest ones should be sufficient.

I want to know too
