You should discuss it with your own instance admins.
The best solution is de-federating their connection to that instance but it is done for everyone on an instance so itβs not a small decision.
This is just so far as I understand, I may be very wrong on how this works.
defederation should be kept to a minimum and saved for big offenders only. I think best option is for lemmy to have an option to hide posts from some instances on a per user basis.
I agree with this. Everyone keeps saying that it doesn't matter which instance you sign up with, since everything is federated. But my biggest concern is thriving communities potentially getting cut off from the rest of the fediverse because they unluckily got created on an instance that has a bad reputation for something completely unrelated. Allowing users to individually hide entire instances for themselves seems like the better approach.
