     Always felt screwed over by my admins when I was on larger instances that blocked other large instances for anything other than legal reasons, because there's always a few accounts I thought were worth following. Personally, I think it's against the spirit of free software to take that control away from the user.

     Fediblock is wildly abused by bad actors or otherwise "misused" by people recommending blocks of entire instances over the bad behavior of a couple individual users. This is horrible advice.

     admin repeated this.

     @denebeim honestly, no. It’s just one of the many instances trying to be 4chan. At best they fill the federated timeline with slurs and at worst they go around harassing people on other instances. Save yourself and your users some trouble and block early

     @denebeim on the topic, also check #fediblock regularly for instances that are causing trouble
