Ah. I understood "block" as "don't show that content". If you've already touched poo, then yeah it's probably hard to get off your hand.
Yeah that took months to accomplish for me, but also for example someone (let's call them "Cowbee" for... reasons) could reply to my very comment here, in a post in a community that is not on Lemmy.ml.
I noticed that 90% of the time when I would receive the most batshit insane replies, whenever they were not coming from hexbear.net or lemmygrad.ml (my first instance after Kbin went defunct was StarTrek.website that had defederated from neither at the time) they were coming from lemmy.ml, thus now that I've finally managed to block them, my experience on the Fediverse has improved >99%.
I would have left the Fediverse entirely if need be - I don't need that kind of toxicity in my life. Instead, I only left Lemmy (moving to PieFed) and am enjoying it here immensely now.:-) Other solutions include the Sync or Connect apps that likewise allow you to block all users from any instance you choose without needing admin support, or Lemmy.cafe or Tesseract on dubvee.org that have already defederated from the big 3.
