When browsing on lemmy.ca/c/all and I click through to a post, the local source instance and community for a post is shown as lemmy.world/c/hot. The source instance is something completely different and shown in the post info bar below the title.

This can get awkward when I think I am commenting on a post I think is on lemmy.world or lemmy.ca when it might actually be lemmy.ml.

I tend not to block instances unless absolutely required and rely mostly on community blocking. Good communities do exist on many different instances flavors, IMHO.

It would be nice to have massive, bold, flashing letters, preferably in Comic Sans that say: “YOU ARE ABOUT TO COMMENT ON .ML! ARE YOU SURE ABOUT THAT???”

Seriously though, highlighting the source instance a little better would be super awesome.

    Maybe I am misunderstanding but there are settings for this already.

    You can move the info above the post and you can enable to Include Instance tag in names.
