Yeah, full agree. So far I've only had to block a few communities to get the loli to stop popping up on all, but a rogue instance could really start to spam people with pretty horrible stuff. That's what defederation is for, it seems, but there needs to be some rules in place for when the instance ban-hammer gets called upon.
It would be very nice if clients like Jerboa allowed users to choose to ban/filter specific instances for themselves without affecting everyone else, though.
Whenever I'm grinding through some beaureacracy : "it's all about the filin'!"
Not the worst song and dance number.
"Nobody goes there, it's too crowded!"
It's a good problem to have, so hopefully a good sign of things to come for Lemmy.

Glad people seem to like it! Happy to create some neat content to help kick start the network effect we'll need to make Lemmy really start to ... mlem?
Here's a link to the SVG if anyone needs it:
Here’s a link to the SVG of the Satisfied Seal so you can tweak as needed. I’ll also post the link in the comment thread. Glad people seem to like it!
Let me know if you want me to tweak the design any and I can send an SVG as well. No copyright/usage restrictions - free to use or modify as you wish.
For the icon: How about a Satisfied Seal? Because when sh.itjust.works, you know that feel!
