@dulcedemon Thanks for the info, I appreciate it and will look it up!
Similar to the theme of the original thread, it's a little confusing to hear that the default instance is one of the ones blocked by people, haha (why??).
At least for me, I thought the default instance would be a neutral one to join. I was hoping I could stay on this one, but it's sounding like I should consider eventually switching if I remain on this platform? :(
@landylachs
I've had no problems on there.
There are a lot of people who are angry that it was made the default at sign-up. I'm not one of them. It seemed unnecessary to me, but if it helps people who find choosing an instance overwhelming, then so be it.
It's kind of crowded, and it can be spammy, but I have a great enthusiasm for blocking such accounts.
