Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Isn’t that how it’s supposed to work?
In a federated system, only the instance admin can block others from commenting.
You can ignore, but you can’t prevent them from replying to your public posts.
i like the fact that they can reply to me but i would like to be notified like for any other replies from other instances.
If you want to hear from them, why would you block them?
Bruh you have no idea what OP is talking about in either of your replies...
They're talking about blocking an instance, which isn't blocking every user, it's blocking every community.
If you do that you still see accounts and their comments, but do t get notified by replies.
I mean, OP already said that. And you didnt understand the first time, so I'm not sure doing it again will help.
But that's why you're confused.
Exactly, yes.
You’re mixing up user blocks of an instance with defederation.
....
Fuck man, are you a really good troll or honestly not able to understand?
Because to everyone else the result is the same, and speaking of blocks....
