I mean...There are others bigger than that with Phoenix A, but these are quasars and very visible, even if billions of LY away. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P

It seems the bigger tact is HOW it was discovered using gravitational lensing that may open up the ability to see otherwise "non-active" blackholes, even supermassive ones that otherwise dont have accretion discs or other forms of waves (radio, light or otherwise) that would make them directly observable. https://arxiv.org/pdf/2303.15514.pdf https://arxiv.org/pdf/2303.15514.pdf I am also not an astronomer, so dont take my word for it. Just seems that it may be a new method that may open up the doors to a more discoveries that may make things like this a bit more....common. TON618 and Phoenix A even are somewhat outliers from a discovery standpoint it seems. And frankly the sizes, distances etc are basically incomprehensible to me.
