@Gargron @evan maybe the people are wrong. maybe their expectations are shaped by hostile design of the past decade+. maybe we shouldn't replicate that design.

arguably this specific example is one of the lower-stakes ones, but "auto approve follow requests" defaulting to "true" is more accurate to what's really happening than "manually approve follower requests" defaulting to "false". spec/protocol-wise, all Follow activities need to be Accepted. that's the default flow.
