Gregory's Server@nus
I am on mastodon through twit.social. I hear the administrator (Leo) say, on various shows, that he blocks entire instances and kicks out users. As an administrator he can block individual users and users can block as well.
My point is that I would not quit because of a few morons and imbeciles. Quiting for other reasons is justifiable and the right of anyone who is doing this voluntarily.
@chribonn well if the morons are on other instances, it's not a problem to block them. Unfortunately, this admin was getting pushback for, far as I can tell, deleting a few posts that were made in spite against others.
Not everybody has the mental capacity to handle harassment within their community. There are better ways to handle it, but hindsight's 20/20. There's a difference between being a bad person and a bad administrator, and I think we're seeing the latter not the former.
