Why is blocking/suspending social.tchncs.de a controversial idea?
Unclear why it's even a topic of discussion.
I would like to see more instances follow the path of awoo.space, raising the ethical standard ever higher, and expanding it to become the new norm, to which all mainstream instances must conform.
Anything less is a ruinous compromise.
@HerraBRE would you consider moving to a safe instance so I can follow you from Awoo? (this is a cue for discussion)

.@swervestray reform is an appropriate course for a user. But reforming assholes should not be in positions of power. Speaking as a reforming asshole.
Perhaps one day after full reform has been demonstrated to the community, it would be appropriate for Milan to take a position of power again, with supervision.
Federating with Milan's server means granting a position of power within the federation of nice instances, to one who is not worthy.
This is not really about Milan.
