    Apps like Sync or Liftoff let you block whole instances on your own.

    Defederation is more for instances to not get overwhelmed by (federated) traffic from instances that most of their users would block anyway.

      Unless I somehow missed it I’m pretty sure you couldn’t filter instances, only users and communities, but I just checked now and you can so maybe they’ve recently added it.

        IIRC it’s been added somewhat recently, like a few weeks ago. LiftOff has it in the beta, I think? Or something like that.
