> Moderators blocking other servers is an essential part of the federated ecosystem in my opinion. When another account (or, with many accounts, another server) is causing tons of moderation reports, blocking that server is essential. Allowing the content to appear anyway will cause boosts, reactions, and then more moderation reports. Moderators are the ones who have to deal with all of the crap being flung into the ether so it makes sense to give them the power to choose what servers they want to bother moderating for.
I meant it in "moderators control what shows to people but if you subscribe to someone on the other server you still get their updates" way. Then for the rest it could be AND kind of deal, if the server-blocked user you're answering is blocked they don't see it unless they also subscribed to them.
