Is there a way to block whole lemmy servers from your feed?

I don't want to block all nsfw content but I really don't want to have to block every new porn community that pops up on lemmynsfw. Is there a way to block all the communities that originate at lemmynsfw?

I'm already working on just running my own instance lol. But no users, just me. That way I can federate/defederate with whoever I want and call it a day.

Any idea on what the monthly cost is going to run?

It’s kinda tricky because you can get a VPS set up really cheap. Like 5 dollars a month cheap or a bit more if you want something more feature rich. But the more instances you federate with, the more storage you’ll need since you’re basically mirroring all of the content you can see. So your cost for storage will go up every month pretty much forever.

I’ll give it a shot. Running self hosted or a VPS isn’t an issue. Thanks.
