@design_RG Dude there are some pretty disgusting and oppressive instances on that list... some of the worst actors in the fediverse are on there... scholar.social, really

Virtually every one of those instances have been oppressive to instances with opposing viewpoints to their own and usually spread disgusting lies about any instance that doesnt fit their ideals..

Its a list of fanaticism mostly (a few instances on there are ok).

boo

@freemo @design_RG thanks for posting I started typing and deleted it

Your welcome. It really isnt like Rob to be so reckless and supporting people and sites that are explicitly exploiting and harming others like that.

Yes, of course, I don't see what you are referring to, of course, other than them having an extensive and well explained block list.

Which includes this site, unfortunately.

I am moving my personal Blog announcements to different places for that very reason.

Regarding the instances site mentioned, you are welcome to explain and make any points you like, as is Oxie too. I meant no disrespect and am listening. Thank you.

@design_RG

The concern isnt so much about explaining it. By giving a site like this a voice, it is free advertisement. Especially when the top post is praising them. Most people will never dig in the replies far enough to understand.

It would be like you promoting GAB as an awesome webside and then thinking people discussing it in the comments would balance out any harm that might do.. Dont get me wrong you are free to voice your opinion. but to show support for something that has such a horrible reputation ultimately looks bad on you and hurts the reputation of everyone associated with the post, including the server.
