Hi, I know it might sound a bit extreme but is there a way to block every users from specific instances ? Someting like "*@shitty.instance.com" ?

I know it's possible to block instances, but you can still see comments from their users.

Settings - > Appearance -> scroll to the bottom - > toggle "Show user instance"

Edit to add: hexbear specifically only recently came back to life. They were out of commission for a couple months because the person who held the certificate or however you call it for hosting the server disappeared. There was some drama about the instance name going up for auction afterwards. They are back to Lemmy as of a month or so ago

FWIW I have gone back to Jerboa: it works as expected wrt blocked instances and users, but also it lets me post in Markdown - something Voyager doesn't seem to do, and I never noticed before.

Voyager blocking behaves exactly the same as in jerboa, since both let the backend do it.

As for markdown, what do you mean? Like a WYSIWYG editor? If so, Voyager prefers to write markdown directly. Fun fact: it was actually one of the main design goals of markdown!
