Comment on What's up with the sudden increase in AI slop?

No need to block every user from the instance, you can block the entire instance in your account settings.

Copied from another comment of mine:

It seems as though you misunderstand how blocking instances and defederation work. If I am hosted on instance X and I block instance Y but don’t block instance Z, users from instance Y can still post onto communities hosted on instance Z and I will still see these posts. This is what I referred to when I said “subset of users from dbzer0 who think they should spread their instance’s values of AI content across all parts of the Fediverse”. Defederating does require an instance, and only by defederating from instance Y would the content made by instance Y users that is posted onto any instance become wholly filtered out for users on instance X.

  Its not even just instance z. If they post yo instance x, you will also see the user. You only will not see the posts to instance Y.
