I joined #mastodon yesterday. And now I have to read that many instances will block another public instance. That's censorship. And very antisocial. I guess it's better going back to twitter.
@allfather There's a lot of coercion going on between admins, with some trying to enforce their policies across instances and blocking those who don't comply. It's not pretty.
Real soon now, people will begin to realize that these few loud instances don't have moral authority over the fediverse and the consequences of telling them 'No. Go away.' come with less cost than trying to accommodate escalating and unreasonable demands for compliance.
@frankiesaxx @allfather The society that runs my instance has no choice but to do that already. There's a bylaw that forbids censorship. The only CW rule is porn and other grotesque imagery. There's also a stipulation for other illegal material, which admins may remove at their own discretion. There's basically no compromise or argument to be had there. It's our instance, our laws.
