    It’s fine if you dislike a site. But the correct thing to do is not consume their content, not to work around it.

      Or use a browser extension to implement your preferences rather than push them onto others in a way that makes it harder for them to implement theirs.

      If an article links to medium.com my redirects kick in, my link flagging kicks in and everything else. If everyone uses some different service to “fix” medium I am stuck with what they like. There is valuable to keeping the canonical URL.

      I would also love to see domain blocks as a user preference in Lemmy. Just hide these sites that I don’t like.
