    Plus they can still vote on your content, and send you DMs, which at first did not but the next version increased the rights of the so-called “blocked” users further to also include pinging you. Which is made all the worse by Lemmy not allowing you to stop notifications for any of your content. That “instance block” is so incorrectly misnamed as to be active disinformation, especially when it was promised to us beforehand as the ability to block instances with problematic users (i.e. hexbear and Lemmygrad), but then instead it merely lets users trolls you incessantly unless you move your account to an instance that dares to actually defederate from them (except virtually nobody does to lemmy.ml).

    PieFed’s set of features is so nice. Like you can set, or deselect, notifications on pretty much anything - get notifications for every single post by a community, or by a user account, or for a comment that is not yours, etc. I have never once regretted switching to PieFed!:-)
