@privacat @ploum @dangillmor I think you've put your thoughts well on this.
I do disagree, but that's mainly because I left Facebook. Which I did giving a full 6 month warning, with my email address and my mastodon handle.
When I first came on the Fediverse, the learning curve was steep. It's better now. My point of view is that I think it depends on what you aim for on this network. For quite a few people on here, blocking for safety has been learned the hard way.
