I think it'd be great as well for giving better control towards what the user can block. Like servers or regions.

Respectfully I don't care for German or Indian meme culture. It's just noise I have to scroll by.

You can already block instances in your profile. Just block feddit.org , never hear from me again, but also you won't see much german content. And you can deselect languages in your profile, too.

Just FYI: blocking instances only blocks the communities on the instances, not the users if they post outside of their instance.

Example: If you blocked Pawb.Social, you'd still see this comment from me on Lemmy.World.
