Are you new here? Most of the block lists out there contain hundreds, if not thousands, of single user instances and dead servers. People who maintain these lists will just add anyone for the slightest reason. Your own instance silences my server and I've even contributed to the Mastodon codebase. People accused me of 'ban evading' when I set up my Pleroma server, even those I have the same username, icon and it's very clearly me.

If you switched from mastodon.social to a place such as shitposter.world or noauthority.social, you would see an ENTIRELY different version of the fediverse.
