Most of the bigger instances seem to have done this, as it hosts mostly alt right content.

    Do you know if defederating with an instance stops you seeing posts from their users posted to other instances that we federate with?

      Not really sure how users posting on other instances would work?

        Yeah because the home instance for the community wouldn’t know or care who we block, so it would have to be blocked at the point we receive the new comment. Probably something to test at some point.
