   We hear about choice and freedom.
   People would be free to choose their instance.
   But people are not informed about what the administrators of their bodies do.

     À propos de certaines instances #Mastodon et leur modération.
     Il m'arrive une petite mésaventure.

     Et c'est l'occasion de poser 2-3 questions.

     2-3 bonnes questions.

     @BeAware And when I checked, in fact, when you search for my profile from Mamot, it says: "This profile has been masked by mamot fr moderation".

     So if someone really wants to see what I post, it's possible. But you have to look. And you need to know what to look for. Here we have a user who didn't see my messages in a discussion where we were both. It's not very practical for chatting...

     @BeAware One of the 2 instances unblocked me.
     The other partially unblocked me. I'm now "limited" by this instance (Mamot).

     I can see the people I follow. And my followers can see me. But other users of the Mamot instance can't see me.

     It was a message from 1 Mamot user, in an exchange where we were both mentioned, that tipped me off. He wasn't seeing my messages.

     2 of the biggest French-speaking Mastodon sites had blocked me. Their users, even those who followed me or whom I followed, could not interact with me or see my messages.

     And I must stress one point: there had been NO information about these blockages, or more exactly these "suspensions". I was not aware of it. And neither were the users of the 2 big authorities that had done this.

     @BeAware

     My questions are as follows:

     1. What's happening to my account? Has Mamot restricted me on purpose?

     2. Why doesn't anyone know about this kind of practice?

     @BeAware And, in fact, this instance welcomed a lot of users when the media started talking about Mastodon, around 2017. As a result, it's one of the biggest French-language forums.

     And as a result, those who are blocked are cut off from a large proportion of Mastodon's French-speaking users...

     BeAware repeated this.

     @SillobreMVC I totally understand the frustration. I was blocked by an instance from which I already had several friends on with no notification or discussion. Just noticed that one day I lost 10 follow relationships at once and investigated to see who I've lost.

     They've since limited me, but I still cannot interact with my friends.😔
