and would very much like to nuke the whole fucking instance
You can block instances on Kbin— go to https://kbin.social/d/lemmy.ml then click the hamburger menu in the upper left and you can block it just like you can a magazine.
To check which ones you’ve blocked you click your name in the upper right > settings > blocked > domains.
You can also filter out specific words in settings (though I haven’t tried this out).
I don’t know what happen when you block instances, but when I’ve blocked entire instances, post comments simply dissapear, not from the instance mind you, random posts comments will just not show up (this is a known but when KBIN users block instances, and has been addressed a number of times, but not fixed by @earnest text below)

if you aren’t seeing comments or your thread, unblock all domains you have blocked, your threads have been posting fine, but there’s a bug where kbin.social users can’t see comments if they block any domain ( https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core/issues/1019 ) . you can also try viewing the thread logged out
https://kbin.social/m/AskKbin/t/452867/Is-KBIN-dying-Srs-Question-Is-there-any-further-developmentYou’re well on you way to getting banned from every community in the fediverse anyway so I wouldn’t worry about it.
Domain blocking isn’t instance blocking. It’s for if you don’t want to see posts that link to, for example, imgur.com. It’s also broken and will just hide random posts from you.
same difference then
I have a similar issue from Lemmy wanting to block kbin.social. I’ve even considered asking to just get banned from the instance just so I don’t need to deal with their users.
we should be able to block and filter text, threads, users and instances, but alas, it’s not a fully fledged social media network yet, which is curious since on mastodon you can block anything and anyone, and they simple cease to exist, which is how it should word everywhere in the fediverse
