Good results so far.. some server admins told us to fuck off and wouldn't even listen. But quite a few so far have told me we are now removed from the block list. Several others are reviewing our timeline and will make a decision.

I expect many instances wont listen since they never bothered to fact check the accusations in the first place. But the fact that in less than an hour many have already agreed to unblock us is enough for me to consider this a successful interaction.

So I reached out to admins of the few instances that block us with a polite email explaining some of the misinformation spread about us in the past...

@freemo I guess that it's only some few people barking making the noise 🤷‍♂️

It's actually sad that this kind of practices make the decentralized nature of Mastodon a more centralized experience based on cancelling other servers?

I hope it won't be needed to move to another instance, because for the moment I have been having the best discussions right here.

@abde It is a very small number of very loud people... Thankfully last I checked QOTO remains the top 10 most federated instance (lowest insularity) on the fediverse.... So im not that worried. I just hate when people throw around misinformation.
