Jerboa is a native-android client for Lemmy, built using the native android framework, Jetpack Compose.

Warning: You can submit issues, but between Lemmy and lemmy-ui, I probably won't have too much time to work on them. Learn jetpack compose like I did if you want to help make this app better.

I'd love to be able to block an entire instance. Can this please be added to Jerboa?

I don't think this is yet possible in the Lemmy protocol itself.

There are hacky ways to do it through a frontend that can only block communities. Any time a post appears from that instance, automatically block the community and hide the post. I don't know if jerboa would prefer to wait until a more elegant solution is possible and/or leave it to the user though.

If I built it, I would just filter it out as it comes in. So don't send anything to the server, just hide stuff. That seems like the least surprising behavior.
