@mtechman @FediTips for me, I go to the users profile and tap on the 3 dots and one of the options is to block the instance.

On Tusky app on mobile, I see mute instance, but not block instance.

@mtechman @FediTips in that case no idea. I am using the mastodon app on mobile.

@mtechman @skyfire747

I think "mute instance" is just another name for block instance.

Users can't block an instance totally, a user's instance blocking is sort of midway between a mute and a block.

That's part of the reason why it's important that admins do instance-level blocks of bad instances, as they really can fully block them.

@FediTips @skyfire747
Thank you! Appreciate this!

I used to use Tusky but find Moshidon the better app for my needs on Android. It also includes the ability to block a server.

@mtechman @skyfire747 @FediTips
Some of those tasks might be easier on a computer than on a phone. On my phone, I can only permanently mute a person, but on my computers, I can choose how long to mute them for.

You can use the website on a phone as well, it works just like using it on a computer.

For the original poster's server, their website is at mastodon.ie

@EllenInEdmonton @skyfire747 @FediTips thank you! Switching to laptop soon.
