The original post we are commenting on stated instances could not opt out. Or at least I thought it did, I don't know how to check edit history. I'm now aware thats untrue.

Switching sites is annoying? I'm sure you are aware of that though...

Thats good to know - but the fact the thread you link to shows some sites get a big WARNING COMMUNISM DETECTED doesn't make me feel much better XD

If you can't opt out as an instance its a bit more than "default settings" imo

And my whole issue is not wanting too wide a net being labeled under "trash sites" I hate Fox News and Infowars but I also hate them being hidden from me with no way to get around that besides switching from piefed to a different service. Who is to say what the next trash site will be? Spam is one thing but I don't need a net nanny.

Thats a fair and reasonable take

This says its all piefed instances

goddamnit goddamnit goddamnit

Why does every fediverse reddit clone have to pull this shit? Like that blocklist isn't horrible - now - but what if the dude pulls a fetterman and next year he is blocking shit you agree with? Politically motivated censorship is the type of thing many people are trying to get away from.

Thanks for sharing this, I genuinely had no idea

looks like a diaper change

Still too expensive. I am glad to see some companies facing pains for their relentless price gouging.

Probably be on her to build it at that point.

Curious to see how this plays out. Paramount has a lot of options but it seems like they might just move forward like it never happened.
