Instance blocking doesn't block comments?

[–] Dirk@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That is correct. Your instance needs to defederate from the other instance to also block comments/users.

User-based instance blocking is actually just hiding posts from that instance. It does not hide or block comments made from users of that instance on posts that are not coming from that instance.
