   Disabling the bridge would be fediblock on steroids.
   
   Most people might have one or two bad interactions with people across the bridge and then block it not knowing that they're blocking ~4.5m accounts (admittedly not all unique users) with a huge range of diverse opinions and values.

     There are only 3 write relays but it's read on the following which are default relays for both damus and amethyst (as well as others):
     relay.damus.io
     relay.snort.social
     brb.io

     That's only to write to mostr, the mostr posts are carried on most of the major relays.

It was only on a few of them at first.

     I think Rabble was referring to Nostr users disabling the bridge for their accounts. Am I barking up the wrong tree there @76c71aae3a491f1d9eec47cba17e229cda4113a0bbb6e6ae1776d7643e29cafa?

     You'll come crawling back to nostr eventually Eris (once your fedi account has been blocked by everyone here 😂)

     I think you're transferring a fedi position to nostr.
     
     The button being discussed wouldn't block a specific fedi instance, it would block the entirety of activitypub from nostr. I could actually see the utility in being able to filter at instance level i.e. pulling the sequence between the _ and the @ to block your instance mastodon.nzoss.nz but once again even then, while better than blocking the bridge we are still transferring one of the worst parts of fedi to nostr.
     
     If you've ever seen a real dogpile you would know the most mentally ill people will happily create 27 different accounts on different open servers to attack their targets. If people want to attack a nostr user they're going to be able to create unlimited npubs directly on here for that purpose, it's literally even easier than what they do now on fedi.

     If people don't like one persons posts the answer is to block that user, not a bridge.

     I'm sympathetic to that position, but what if you're being dogpiled by accounts from one server? Blocking a server can be the only way to avoid playing whack-a-mole with an army of sockpuppets.

     This kind of hyperbolic attitude is precisely the reason some fedizens are looking sideways at the whole idea of Nostr bridges.
