I don't know enough about how Lemmy works on the back end - but maybe something like a PiHole blocking all traffic to the domains of instances you don't like. I'm unsure if the device requests that data directly from the other instance or if the instance you're connected to retrieves that data and sends it as it's own.
All the data comes from your own instance afaik. So pi-hole wouldn't work
Bummer, but kinda suspected that with all the talk about lag between instances. Thanks for the info
As far as I understand, itβs the latter. So Pi-hole would not help you here at all.
