Block instance option? (lemmy.ml)

I was using connect which has a block instance I option I used but after switching to boost I'm now seeing those instances again and it's a pain to block community by community because there are so many of them and they're very active.

Did I miss the setting for this or is it not a feature of Boost?

You can mute an instance. I don't think lemmy has the option to block an instance

If I'm not mistaken, the feature is already developed in Lemmy, just not released yet. Should be a few months.

Thanks, I saw that after I posted and was going to reply that fixed it but for some reason I couldn't find my post using Boost. I thought maybe I hadn't actually posted it.

Then I discovered that muting an instance isn't working the same as blocking. I'm still seeing communities from those instances and having to explicitly block each so I think a block function for instances is still needed. Unless I muted incorrectly.
