If I click on a username there’s a big block button in the top right hand corner of the screen. The “Blocked” tab on my profile settings also suggests the ability to block communities. I’ve heard that kbin supports blocking entire instances at a user level, but only instances can defederate from instances on lemmy

Yes, to do this, go to kbin.social/d/insertinstancehere, then block from there.
I think this is one of the strengths of kbin, because kbin itself can be open and neutral as much as possible and let each user decide the content they want/don’t want to see. Of course this doesn’t stop bad actors from coming over, making accounts, and start giving the instance a bad reputation, making it increasingly likely for it to be defederated by other instances…
