There is a substantial amount of spam and NSFW posts on the All page coming through already. Most NSFW posts aren’t being tagged as such and are coming right through. I am not sure how this can be weathered but we need something in place fairly soon, I feel like we are days away from rivers of bad stuff, especially via some of the federated instances.
EDIT: I personally don’t care much about the NSFW aspect, more in the lines of what a newcomer will be seeing when they get to the main page. 99% of the newcomers don’t know / care about federation and have no idea how to turn that off. Liability for the server owner is also an element of consideration.
How do you do that? I was looking for exactly that feature but can’t find a “local list”, which only shows kbin threads or something similar.
this button
I think that this button defederate your content, not the content from other instances.
if you want to block another instance, you can click on its domain name (between bracket) and block it. like you’ll block usual magazine
you can also type this in your url to access a domain : https://kbin.social/d/name of the domain like kbin.social or lemmy.whatever
then you can check the magazines and domains you blocked in your profile’s settings.
but it’s still a bit buggy and need some work to work correctly.
EDIT: this doesn’t block the instance, but only the domain. new tool coming soon, confirmed by the main dev:

That federation button switched to “off” will not show content on home feed from the other instances.
I had the same question and posted it in meta, a kind user let me know and it works great. I prefer kbin’s feed.
it may have the same effect but it’s not the same feature. if you block domains, like you block magazines or users, you get to have an ensemble view of all those in your user settings. that kinda make sense.
and I can’t find where the instances defederated with your technique are listed. maybe you know where?
edit: syntax

So I’ve gone to https://kbin.social/d/lemmynsfw.com, which pulled up that instance, but how do I then block that instance?
you click on the “crossed” O . the same way you block a magazine or an user.
https://kbin.social/m/kbinfaqs@kilioa.org is a good place for knowledge

Click the little triangle in the top right corner just under the search button. There’s an option to turn federation on or off.
