How do we go about blocking a domain?
I was looking at abuse reports, and saw several associated with a domain name that is associated with violently aggressive transphobia. I checked the homepage and it was exactly what I was afraid it was.

Actually, another bunch were coming from a domain I just saw mentioned in an article as a site for racists. I'm not naming them directly in case their partisans are searching for mentions.
So that's two domains that should be blocked outright.
How is this done?
@FoolishOwl Also, you can block whole domains from your Federated feeds yourself.
Click an offending toot, click the three dots, "block domain".
I did that early on in my Mastodon days to rid my Federated feed of porn.

Name and shame, publicly.
Most instances will block if you use the hashtag #FediBlock with precise information.
The, turn around and block those sites individually, there are options that allow you to block an entire instance *as an individual*.
