Apart from the technical reasons, it's also just.. toxic. It takes Twitter's horrible culture of dogpiling people based on made-up justifications and applies it to the Fediverse. It ensures that every tiny mistake results in a massive argument (which never does any good, it just hurts everyone who gets involved) and the blocking of entire instances.

This makes Fediverse a less safe and welcoming place for everyone.

I'm not even mentioning the fact that many of the people who were targeted this time are queer and/or disabled.
This is not a coincidence. This kind of "canceling" often harms people who are more vulnerable and don't have a massive platform the most. That's just how it works.

i have also been here since april 2017 folks

computer fairies was founded in april 13 2017

i've been pushed out of my own space because i wanted to be friends with the wrong people, apparently, literally it was a personal spat with a bigger instance admin which turned into "ooo this person is a mad abuser"

i wanted rhys to be my friend, not to be ghosted and belittled by them

i don't think that's too abusive to ask for, in a personal environment

that's the danger of #fediblock

Going through #fediblock gave me a really iffy feeling. Some people are spamming the hashtag for some reason, others are slandering users for not having the same opinion on some topics as them and some other few really do deserve to be fediblocked for harassment of BiPOC and FLINTA*.
As I see it, as long as someone's not harassing someone else or spreading hate speech, why fediblock them? You're free to simply not follow that person. Why block their entire instance???

hey uh, anyone in the uk/eu area know good places to get better quality sex toys than ann summers? preferably furry friendly/queer friendly
