   Reviewing activitypub instances to block be like:

   - Hmm, why is this in a block list?
   - *takes look*
   - OH DEAR GOD I'M GOING TO BE ON A LIST NOW!!!!!
   - *auto imports all other block list instances without checking any more*

     @forrest @give take them with a massive grain of salt and check instances that aren't immediately apparent. Oliphant and mastodon.art are widely known for being massively untrustworthy.

     @give @forrest nah that's perfectly reasonable. They have "reason" their on there, right? Also, read the domains, most of them give themselves away...😬

     If you have any concerns, you could use https://fba.ryona.agency to see how widely blocked they are.

     I hate that such a useful site is run by such shitty people. Ryona.agency is widely blocked for racism as well, but that tool comes in handy when I'm curious about blocks.

     @BeAware @forrest I didn't know this, thanks!

     I did review a few, but as soon as the first dodgy thing became apparent, I stop searching though the rest.

     I don't want any CSAM / alt-right / fascist / racist / or *phobic stuff turning up in my feed, or searches.

     @BeAware yeah, they ruined the page with the last couple of lines of text.

     Apparently my instance is blocked on 1 server, for matching *.uk.

     Seems to be full of British people.

     Lol!
