Christ almighty is there a ton of porn and lunacy on this instance's federated timeline. This may have been a mistake.

@evaristus Federated timelines are usually improved by you muting the whole instance. There are only a gew instances that show porn so its easy to block it all in one go.

But generally we dont silence instances at the server level unless they engage in harassment.

@evaristus

You know how to mute a whole instance instead of just individuals right?

@cowanon @evaristus @freemo

It's easy, as freemo described. Present in all user profile dot menus. Screenshot here for one.

@cowanon @evaristus @freemo
that could be not from the server, but from the client software you are utilizing.

Mine is the default Mastodon web interface - you can get the same if you open the qoto.org in a browser in any device - mobile or desktop.

Try that, is my guess you are on mobile and client is not full featured.

I just have freespeechextremist.com in my desktop browser. I'm still pretty new to this fediverse/etc stuff and don't quite yet know how exactly it all works; that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it! :blob_laughing: @design_RG @evaristus @freemo

@cowanon
Well, you have the same software as I am using here right now. The home instance loaded into a browser for use. You should see the menu like I did.

BUT -- you need to Search for the @sinblr account in your own instance's Search box.

Notice on screenshot how I am using the search box, from my own instance, qoto.org, and lookign for "@sinblr" (without quotes.

If you do it from here, you have the options, all of them, Follow, mute, block, block whole instance.

@evaristus @freemo

Looks like I'd have to make a brand new account on qoto.org to get such options. Drat. But thank you for the help! :blobrainbow: @design_RG @evaristus @freemo
How strange, this interface is all weird and stuff! Let's see if I can get used to it. Thanks a bunch! :rainbowdance: @TheMadPirate @design_RG @evaristus @freemo
@cowanon @design_RG @evaristus @freemo it's a tweetdeck like interface.
Press on the looking glass icon, search for @ sinblr, press the three dots near the profile name, select "hide everything from this instance".
Follow

@TheMadPirate @cowanon

As Mad Pirate pointed out, if you opened the freespeech.com/web page, you should have the full Mastodon web interface, and similar to what we have here at Qoto.

Keep plowing, friend, we are all learning, everyday.

I just started here a month ago. And loving every minute. Cheers!
