Some time yesterday, everyone I was following on infosec.exchange, I was no longer following. I was able to re-follow them, and everyone from there who was following me, still is.

WTF?

Apparently what happened is that one @jerry decided that my posts should be blocked from being seen on infosec.exchange, then changed their mind.

So keep that in mind when choosing your instance, I guess.

At no point in this process did I receive any communication about it from anybody.

And apparently a side-effect of this was that *I* lost followers?

This system is not a good system.

@jwz @jerry yup. Been burned by this in the past. Dealing with moderation is difficult, but the tools are so blunt and those with agency so inappropriate that it is a massive downside to the fediverse.

If not addressed, it will kill this network.
