I believe turning federation “off” would just limit your feed to content from kbin.social.

If you want to block an entire instance of Lemmy you can use the /d/ (for domain) function. For instance, if you didn’t want to see anything from lemmy.ml you could go to https://kbin.social/d/lemmy.ml and click the block icon on the right side. You can manage your blocked domains from your settings. You can also block individual Magazines/Communities by going to the community and clicking on the block icon.

You can also use the domain feature to block non-Lemmy/Kbin sites: https://kbin.social/d/newrepublic.com

Also, I’m not suggesting that people should be blocking either of those domains. They were just some of the first options on my feed that I could copy for examples.

this is super useful!
I posted this as a thread in the /m/kbinmeta to bring attention, linking back to your post

Wow, that’s a superb feature I didn’t know existed! So I could subscribe to https://kbin.social/d/newrepublic.com (not going to just using the same example) and get every thread that links there - nice!

It looks like that is a planned feature judging by the unpopulated “Instances:” heading beneath the main toggle. For now you can block specific communities/magazines from appearing in your feeds. So you could just block any lemmy.ml community that appears.
