Update The upgrade was done, DB migrations took around 5 minutes. We’ll keep an eye out for (new) issues but for now it seems to be OK.
Original message We will upgrade lemmy.world to 0.18.3 today at 20:00 UTC+2 (Check what this isn in your timezone). Expect the site to be down for a few minutes. ““Edit”” I was warned it could be more than a few minutes. The database update might even take 30 minutes or longer.
Release notes for 0.18.3 can be found here: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/blob/main/RELEASES.md
(This is unrelated to the downtimes we experienced lately, those are caused by attacks that we’re still looking into mitigating. Sorry for those)
I want to be able to ban/hide entire servers. Regularly seeing lemmynsfw celebrity communities pop up in All/Hot :| (I have nsfw disabled, so it’s just generic photos of random women.)
Also an option would be nice to hide downvoted posts, I had that on in RES.
Block the user “madness”, its literally one guy posting that shit.
maybe now, but if Lemmy grows that will be a good feature to have.
The Connect app ( !lemmyconnect@lemmy.ca) has both word filters and instance-blocking, I believe.
Thanks, but I’m a PC only user.
Keep an eye on !alexandrite@lemmy.world which is being developed as a Desktop-first Lemmy client. Someone already requested instance-blocking there. Not sure about word filters but why not ask?
thanks!
Ah, I hid celebrities, 196, and a bunch of other communities so I wouldn’t have to scroll through it. But certainly I see where ignoring an entire federated host would be helpful.
Scroll down to the bottom of your user settings and untick the box next to “Show Read Posts”. Any posts you’ve voted on, up or down, will stop showing up.
I don’t want to hide everything I’ve voted on.
