    Sure unless your instance is defederated, we need more ways to control the content without relying on defederation

    Hopefully defederation will happen less and less with 19.X allowing users to block instances themselves

      Yeah I think there needs to be more options though, for admins and for users. Like conditional caching or proxying of images from other instances.

      And not just blocking instances but choosing to block all the users from an instance without blocking their communities, or only blocking their comments not their posts. Also admins should be able to set default blocks that all the users get but can change individually

        That would be nice indeed, but with the development rhythm, it might take a while to get there. Sublinks on the other hands seems promising sublinks.org
