     @david It is actually quite common that this mix up happens...
     The values of anarchists are anti-authoritarian sure, altho that doesnt mean that there should be no laws. Instead the idea goes more into a direction where people should have more power on how things are decided...
     
     If you go by these values, you are probably on one of the anarchistic instances within fedi. Basically i, as an admin, dont block anything except certain types of instances while you are in the power to block anything by yourself.

     @david On the other hand, the definition changes pretty much to every person you ask... its like wikipedia got multiple times rewritten, referring to Anomy on one day, declaring it as chaos & destruction the other day

     @Jain if more of fedi was like this then there would be less dramas and things would be a lot less toxic .
     
     I have seen ppl get fediblocked just because they didn't block another instance, or one of the users on the instance interacted with someone that an admin on other instance dislikes.

     @Jain I like that you give users that choice. i find it ironic that some people claim to be anti-authoritarian, yet they use fedi blocklists and things, whereas you don't do that, and you let ppl block instances if they want to and give users that choice.
