   Could use it on fedifinder's login page to prefill all those instances but still accept others.
   Although it seems like you've deliberately limited it for some reason? If so, why?

     @Zerglingman Yea it's setup as a whitelist model because there are some gross instances on the fedi. Most of the time when people say that they mean somebody said the N word but I really don't care about that. I draw the line of acceptable public discourse at child sex. I have had to deny only a couple instances because, among other less offensive deviancy, I saw discussions of children's sexuality. I very quickly check out each user/instance that applies and if I see that kinda stuff it's a no.

     @HLC Fair enough.

     @Zerglingman I wish it didn't have to be that way but I don't really see any way around it. I appreciate your volunteering useful coding suggestions regardless though. If you come up with anything else feel free to shout it out I will entertain any possible improvements.

     @HLC Can't really solve moderation problems with programming.
     I think the only possible scenario for opening up access would be to maintain a blacklist of known pedo instances.
     Which probably wouldn't be that difficult unless one of them decides to go out of its way to fuck with you.

     @Zerglingman It actually would be difficult but not because of any intentional fuckery. New instances pop up and old ones disappear constantly. To maintain a functional blacklist I would need to know about the newest pedo instances before they access FF. That's not something I want to do nor would it be easy since #fediblock -ers care more about the N word than MAPs.

     I feel like what I have now is the best solution. It's a very low bar to entry. They send info, I vet for obvious pedo stuff, ez.
