@stux I honestly am disillusioned with this whole FediBlock thing.
Its intended purpose is protecting the network from known abusers, which is the sentiment I can get behind. But at best it works as a short-term solution, and being overused and the hashtag being thrown around for every tiny slight turns into either a network-breaking menace or a useless farce. Arguing for it further only solidifies the madness and groupthink and perpetuates the farce.
Once you've seen enough, you realize that this can't be viewed as a comprehensive solution, no matter how you cut it.
@drq @stux there's a lot of instances that are worth blocking, that have been around for a long time. I wouldn't want them to be able to interact with me by default. And I think a lot of people would agree with that as a baseline.
And I don't want to be on, and would not encourage people to be on, an instance that allowed anyone to interact with you.
But blocking an instance solely because you wouldn't want to be there, that doesn't make sense to me.
tl;dr Stux mods good and I support
