I assumed the reason an instance would block this is that it is a strain on server resources...
Twitter provides an embed feature that can be used to embed any public tweet on a web page. I also see content duplicated as screenshots all the time. I have to assume that this expectation is included in the terms of service that every Twitter user agrees to. Not sure how this usage is different.
@tonymasiello @jorijn@toot.community @bradr3d please respect admins’ decisions about this. They are also trusted by their communities to curate the fediverse. If you are not happy about how your server handle things, you can always move servers ✌️
@vincent @tonymasiello @jorijn @bradr3d I agree with this. However, it’s important to ensure that admins are transparent about the rules in place. I’ve definitely seen servers that list rules, then make decisions that are out of scope of those rules. It’s critical to set the rules publicly, and enforce the stated rules. Going out of scope of those stated rules is unfair to the members of your community.

Sorry I was only trying to understand the issue better make conversation. No disrespect intended! ☮️
I absolutely agree with what you mention about the trust of the community in admins and the ability for anyone to change servers.
Thank you!
