there is a rightwinger instance constantly showing up in my feed and blocking users/communities one by one is getting a bit annoying :/

yeah, users need more control, instances need the ability to defederate due to anything crossing legal lines in thier jursdictions, but right now its used for more than that simply because it works well.
users should have control over blocking not just communities but entire instances if they please and meta on posts/communities should be correct so instances can show users SFW public pages for non-members (aka the general public)
The good thing is you can always run a tiny instance for just yourself and not defederate with anyone if other communities defederate too aggressively.
im sure it would need some tweaks to how sync works but i think its completely possible for every user that wanted to have thier own instance, running right on thier phone if they desired.
I can already imagine a few ways that can go wrong. This would be a awesome way to do it though but there are many issues that would have to be addressed for that.
