If your browser supports uBlock Origin you can use it to block an instance. Basically just add something like this under ‘My Filters’:

lemmy.one##.post-listing:has-text(@hexbear.net)

Where ‘lemmy.one’ is the instance you’re browsing from, and ‘@hexbear.net’ is the instance you wish to block. The ‘@’ prefix is necessary

Connect app has a built in block instance feature fwiw

I use this usercript to block whole instances:
greasyfork.org/en/…/469297-block-lemmy-instances

You need to edit line 17

Here adapted to work also with MLMYM (old.lemmy.world): pastebin.com/z0mShfDP

I feel like I’ve seen comments indicating that some of the paid apps offer blocking instances as an option.

Ha, hexbear is already a bunch of degenerates, no?

(yeah, you meant ‘defederating’, but I thought it was funny)

I believe you can’t block instances as a user, at the moment.

I’ve heard that one of the apps can do it, I don’t remember which though.

Connect on Android can.

Both Connect and Sync for Lemmy on Android can do this
