This piece is crazy.
Is the author really claiming that (1) there is a global blocklist for mastodon and (2) one can get on that blocklist forbeing rude to users (without any actual hate speech or any of the -isms)?
if so, I can see community fragmenting in million little areas soon.
- M2Ys4U 4y agoNo, they're not. The #FediBlock hashtag can be used by anyone - it's literally just a hashtag - and it's up to folks (mainly admins) monitoring that hashtag to investigate and (if it appears to be necessary) take action. There are no global blocklists, and even the concept of shared blocklists isn't accepted by many, although there are quite a few Known Bad instances that a lot of admins block.
