@paragon@social.besties.house The entire situation is confusing, hard to piece together and better left alone. People in general do not like global blocklists shared between instances, there has been criticism of what TBS includes and what TBS does not include. This happens to any blocklist though, as there’s a wide variety of opinions when it comes to this sort of thing. You’ll be hard pressed to find instance administrators commenting publicly on the matter. At most you’ll get people who try to remain neutral and stay out of it (yes, I try not to have a "TBS alignment".). I'm replying to this because it’s a rabbit hole but also because there’s people who follow me and who definitely will provide context to these things that I cannot because I was not involved or there.

I try not to let that dictate me, I have a lot of context but I don’t want to be involved. I administrate for an instance that has taken a stance, but part of my conditions for doing so was that I would be kept out of it. I hope that when I post this people will respect my decision regarding that, and that they will drop my mention from the resulting thread. I don’t like seeing people left in the dark but at the same time it’s hard to give an answer. This is one of those things you just have to form an opinion about regarding what is given to you and it can be very hard to make sense of.
