I wanna see instances federated with most instances now that in individuals can ban entire instances. I know theres still some instances you want completely blocked from the off tho.
Do instances want to remain legally protected by blocking all those instances?
What do yall think about that?
I think a perfectly acceptable line to draw is “Is it reasonable to expect a large majority of the people on this instance would want this other instance blocked?” If the answer is yes, block them. If somebody has a problem with that, move to a different instance.
I don’t really understand what the problem is.
Tyranny of the Masses
This does not apply when you can move or make your own instance. It’s like complaining about tyranny inside your own house. Like, what?
Because it should be up to the user to block what they wanna and not just biased moderators
The whole point about federation is you are welcome to find another instance that shares this view!
Personally, I don’t want to stumble onto CSAM or racist shit and have to block those instances myself. (It’s exhausting enough blocking the hentai and furry communities as it is!)
And it is. Users are free to create their own instance or choose one that blocks very minimally and augment with their own blocks.
