tired: blocking a single user based on their activity

wired: blocking their entire instance with them

@eal is this what you meant @quad

eal, Series 4800 @eal@social.sakamoto.gq
@taiz That's the blocklist on your instance. @quad
Taiz @taiz

@eal @quad he’s on quad.moe not anitwitter.moe

Taiz @taiz

@quad @eal fuck i didn’t even know instance owners could block other instances

strangely enough i was able to add anitwitter.moe to toodon?

eal, Series 4800 @eal@social.sakamoto.gq
@quad @taiz Users can block instances.
Taiz @taiz

@quad @eal i can’t find unsafe.space , is it down or is it somehow blocking the search feature for it?

eal, Series 4800 @eal@social.sakamoto.gq
@taiz @quad It has never even been a part of the federation. Tells you something about the nature of these blocklists.
Taiz @taiz

@eal @quad that means it’s not even about filtering the federation, it’s about trying to silence them for believing in free speech. smh

eal, Series 4800 @eal@social.sakamoto.gq
@quad @taiz And I'm actually fine with that so long as you are clear about the goals of the instance. I joined a "general-purpose" one which later turned out to be a safe space. Sucks when you can't even see that someone replied to your post.
Taiz @taiz

@eal wait what? even if i follow them?

eal, Series 4800 @eal@social.sakamoto.gq
@taiz If you follow them you see posts normally, but how would I know that I should follow them when I can't see them in the first place?
Taiz @taiz

@eal considering jumping ship now, any ideas on how to do it?

eal, Series 4800 @eal@social.sakamoto.gq
@taiz Find an instance that fits your views. I'd suggest niu.moe, if I didn't start my own I'd have joined that.

Then just export your follows on octodon and import them on the new instance.
Taiz @taiz

@eal how do i export follows? i'll probably just (finally) move to @quad 's instance

eal, Series 4800 @eal@social.sakamoto.gq
@taiz @quad It's somewhere in the settings, I don't use mastodon anymore so don't remember where exactly
Taiz @taiz

@quad @eal it’s impressively dead though, last post was on the 25th

Taiz @taiz

@quad @eal thats pretty dumb. i’ll just add columns for them then so i can see everyone
