I hate to see that people are so disturbed at what others are doing on another community@instance that simply blocking it on their account isn’t enough. Nonsensical. And the logical conclusion is producing nothing more than a Reddit clone with many of the same weaknesses.

I think both types of isolation are bad, personally. It’s all very divisive and non-constructive. To me it seems very easy to just ignore or block a community I don’t like instead of de-federating from the host instance entirely. Idk. It’s disturbing to me that that was the route taken to cut off a particular community.
