On that point I wholly agree. We have never caved to third party pressure in that regard.

cool_boy_mew (coolboymew@shitposter.club)'s status on Sunday, 30-Jul-2023 05:03:55 JST cool_boy_mew @freemo @Moon @McMongoose @tomey yet, you recommend the fediblock blocklist in your pinned statuses
Curious -
Moon (moon@shitposter.club)'s status on Sunday, 30-Jul-2023 05:09:53 JST Moon @freemo @coolboymew @McMongoose @tomey individuals subscribing to blocklists is more or less okay, you don't see it from the fediblock people because it's as much about punishment as about safety. -
🎓 Doc Freemo :jpf: 🇳🇱 (freemo@qoto.org)'s status on Sunday, 30-Jul-2023 05:09:54 JST 🎓 Doc Freemo :jpf: 🇳🇱 Yes I do, because while I dont think servers should force a block list on a user I do think the user should have the option to block and an easy path to do so if thats what they want. If there is a user that wants low-moderated instances blocked they should have that choice and easy access to a block list to accomplish it.
I myself dont use the block list, but I do understand its need for some users.
It is also an attempt to address the usability issue I mentioned earlier while not needing to block at the instance level... a possible middle ground solution.

I've seen it on twitter, etc -
cool_boy_mew (coolboymew@shitposter.club)'s status on Sunday, 30-Jul-2023 05:11:10 JST cool_boy_mew @freemo @McMongoose @Moon @tomey then why recommend it at all?
You're saying stuff but then the actions doesn't match -
🎓 Doc Freemo :jpf: 🇳🇱 (freemo@qoto.org)'s status on Sunday, 30-Jul-2023 05:11:11 JST 🎓 Doc Freemo :jpf: 🇳🇱 Thats a huge problem in fediverse blocklists too... I get it there are a lot of blocklists that are fairly abusive in how aggressive they are.
