I've searched, but I can't find an answer: is there a way to filter out entire instances? I want to follow the Federated timeline, but there are so many non-English toots from instances like friend.nico, they overwhelm the toots I can understand. The "only show me English" preference isn't working for me, and though I put "friend.nico" in my filter list, I'm still seeing a flood of Japanese in my Federated timeline.

Thanks for your help and patience with this old man who is figuring it out.
