I’m really sorry and this is so unfortunate. My instance too has been ‘blocked’ or as they say, ‘Suspended’ from mastodon.art because some Admin of that instance thought that I’m a ‘fan’ of @alex ‘Fan’ because I’ve been recommending Soapbox + Rebased which Alex has created. It’s a great piece of software so what’s wrong in recommending it?

Another reason cited was ‘recommends Spinster’: I did because I was trying to help some lady out here who was looking for a Feminist oriented instance. And Bam, “Suspended because the admin recommends Spinster”.

Enough rant and I don’t need to explain myself because I find it laughable. However, big Instances/Servers being run on the whims and fancies of Instance Admins will be the downfall of the Federation. It defeats the entire purpose.

End note: Suspended means I can no longer see posts from the instance on the timeline of my instance.
