@GreenLantern@mas.to To bad the admin for your instance doesn't. I see a large block list of servers that I suspect are blocked for illegitimate reasons. I suspect a good deal of them are blocked because he's afraid he'll get blocked if he doesn't. Unfortunately some admins make it block or be blocked in some parts of the Fediverse. That's why it's so fragmented. One instance I say was virtually not even a part of the Fediverse their block list was so long. @stux @Talloran @KoalaBeans@mstdn.social

@terryenglish We only block a few instances that spam a lot of unmarked nsfw content and Gab but next to that not much 🙂

@GreenLantern @Talloran @KoalaBeans

@stux Spam or other technical reasons are perfectly legitimate in my opinion to block. If I were an admin I'd probably remove Gab from the TWKN timeline but would remain otherwise federated with them. Sure there are some people with vile opinions on there but that the world. Keeping them isolated only seems to be making them crazier. @GreenLantern@mas.to @KoalaBeans@mstdn.social

@terryenglish @stux @GreenLantern @KoalaBeans I don't like gab, but i feel that's not the fault of the users, they're not allowed to talk to anyone that would argue their opinion.

I mean, it's literally just Right Wing twitter. If the community was much more open to criticism, there wouldn't be much of what's going on now where they're all crazy

@terryenglish @GreenLantern @KoalaBeans @stux gab could be a perfectly fine right wing conservative cesspit, but putting them in a echo chamber is just making them go insane.
They think they're better than twitter, but they're literally just the right wing version of twitter.

and it's full of boomers because anyone with half a braincell would realize that they're literally in a echo chamber
