   Help!

   I really liked Mastodon.
   I really thought he had a cool future.

   But now my second account has been blocked for me because I indicated Patreon.
   Nowhere in the rules was this mentioned. Just the server admin decided so.
   I spent a month of my life on the account, brought a lot of friends to the project.

   It's a shame when your work can be destroyed in one moment.

   Competitors (such as Twitter) can specifically create servers and delete pages registered with Mastodon.

   @Gargron help

     I’m really sorry and this is so unfortunate. My instance too has been ‘blocked’ or as they say, ‘Suspended’ from mastodon.art because some Admin of that instance thought that I’m a ‘fan’ of @alex ‘Fan’ because I’ve been recommending Soapbox + Rebased which Alex has created. It’s a great piece of software so what’s wrong in recommending it?

     Another reason cited was ‘recommends Spinster’: I did because I was trying to help some lady out here who was looking for a Feminist oriented instance. And Bam, “Suspended because the admin recommends Spinster”.

     Enough rant and I don’t need to explain myself because I find it laughable. However, big Instances/Servers being run on the whims and fancies of Instance Admins will be the downfall of the Federation. It defeats the entire purpose.

     End note: Suspended means I can no longer see posts from the instance on the timeline of my instance.

     @Deus @Lost_World @Gargron Mastodon.art has one of the biggest blocklists on the Fediverse. Nothing of value was lost.

     I have a single user instance and they even managed to block me. I had like what, 2 interactions with their users? Or maybe even none. Fuck them and their artsy fartsy server
