[Feature Request] Block accounts/bots

I’m either blind or this isn’t a feature of this app yet, but there doesn’t seem to be a feature yet to add an account to a block list.

I’m just so tired of seeing b0t@zerobytes.monster posts.

I believe I’ve seen that Lemmy has a bot account flag for repost bots like b0t, it would great if you could filter all accounts flagged as bots too.

If you long press/tap the "..." button on comments/posts there's an option to block users and communities. For posts you might have to open it first to block the user. Filtering bot posts is a cool idea, might add that

Ah. Thanks for the follow up. I was pulling up the profile of the person I wanted to block like you’d do if you wanted to block a community.

Additionally an option to filter an entire instance would also be useful.

No problem! Check out Settings/Content Filters/Insances
