@james Thank you so much for this timeline. Even as a fellow member of Fediadmins, keeping track of all this has been difficult. The clarification about there being two different websites really cleared things up, for example.
Although actually, aren't there three websites now? There was that first anti-blocklist pact, then that blog post listing all the supposedly transphobic blocks (is that just one blog post, or a whoel website?), and now The "Good" Space. Are these all by different bigots?
