As i read it, @dansup said he will block threads by default on pixelfed.social and pixelfed.art, the instances where he is the admin, and he created a tool to do it. Pixelfed-the-software won't have any blocks by default.

As i understand it from the post, it's actually a nice feature - the optional blocks.
It doesn't mean that a software will have some blocks by default, but admin will have an ability to block some instance "optionally". For example, you blocking poa.st cause your users tired to see these siegheiling fuckers in their mentions, but since the block is "optional", any user can unblock it for them personally.
It's like a "personal block" of the domain but only the other way around, a "personal unblock" -

I understand you, you don't want to take responsibility for other's bad behavior and waste your mental resources on it. For me personally it's not very hard in most cases.

I'm more care not only "the feelings" directly but about how those feelings will affect my ability to get my (or your) point across, convince people to believe in the things i think are facts.
For example, if you show this thread to normie lgbtq people or allies, 90% of them will say we both are disconnected from reality edgelord lunatics, they won't even think about arguments in a good faith which make them useless. -

> Like sure it may be a fact that you are upset, but doesnt change the color of the sky either.
This is true, but a person being upset is also a fact and should be addressed accordingly if you're really trying to convince them that the sky is not purple. -

> Trying to account for an emotional reaction, particularly if it is counter to the reality/facts is not a direction I have any desire to go down.
I always was a bit confused about this "feelings vs reality" narrative. The thoughts and state of other people's minds are also a facts of reality, they're is connected to it, they're is affecting it and they could be predicted, hence it's better not to ignore them as well as any other facts of reality. Especially if you are trying to figure out why people are rejecting your ideas and how to overcome this issue.
> For example many feel Queer is an offensive term
Honestly, i have no strong opinion in this regard, never talked to a person thinking that the term "queer" is offensive ๐
I am also fully okay with it, but okay, i got it.
...
I also think we care about slightly different things here, i care most about being well (and easily) understood, and you care most about proper categorization. -

> What sex you are attracted to has **nothing** to do with gender, conforming or otherwise.
> And crossdresser has nothing to do with trans, intersex, or non-binary.
^
I replied to this thing, i personally think putting drags/crossdressers in the same subcategory with trans and nonbinary is ok.
> I do care about WHY
I feel i know exactly why but also i feel i won't be able to explain it correctly, it's more about emotional reactions than the raw logic. -

> This is a completely different matter and doesn't belong here.
I think these people are well fit in the category "people who are doing gender non-conforming stuff", but whatever.
@freemo
Like i predicted - people feel not very comfy with your brand new typesystem ๐
I really don't understand what was the point of reinventing the terminology except purely technical curiosity like "how to categorize queer folks more effectively". -

with no real definition or meaning
It actually has a real definition, and when you say it, people understand what you meant: it simply means "any non-straight and/or non-cis folks". Did you meant "it have no dictionary definition"?
I really wouldnt loose sleep over that.
It's not much about will you loose sleep or not, it's about a value of conversation and being able to get your point across correctly. If you don't care about it then you might as well reply with markov chain output or have no conversations at all ๐คทโ๏ธ
That said im leanign towards โLGBPโ anyway.
Well, you can definitely try it, i even wonder if people will accept and understand such logic :thonk: You could then publish a mini-report ๐

@freemo
> Queer
It's a reclaimed slur if i remember it correctly, was similar to "fag"
> Therefore from now on I think im going to just refer to it as "LGB" which ill use for discussions about orientation.
It's widely used by transphobes, and i predict that people will at minimum feel uncomfortable with it, at most block you.
Of course, you can use whatever words you want, and it's okay to question why we use the words we do, but it's best to be careful with it if you want to be properly understood ๐
