@me_the_fl00f @hankg @darnell @cstross good point. I’m going to see if there’s a way to have two join dates, one for when a user joined the fediverse and one for when they joined Flipboard. Both are important as we fully adopt ActivityPub.
With respect to blocking, instances need to be productive and have useful communities that provide true value to others. I am striving to ensure Flipboard does this so others can benefit from the curation many have done for years in an open and positive way.
