The group of people who are trying to divide the fediverse seem to have reached a new low.. They have a tool that lists how many instances block a particular instance, but it is highly manipulative.

For starters it is hand curated.. so they exclude blocks against their own instances and only includes instances they actually dislike.

Worse yet they curate a list ordered by "most blocked".. problem is they use the number of instances that block. They game the system by having large number of single-user instances. So instances in the top 50 may only be blocked by a few hundred people but still appear as if the blocks are significant....

This is why we need transparency, its why we need the https://UFoI.org

@freemo @ufoi Nothing screams #transparency like "Members of the UFoI will be temporarily hidden until the last stage of launch"

@sehe

why would you care about the list before the members are actually officially members?

The last stage votes the members into the UFoI and it becomes active... before that there is no list to share, just tentative instances wanting to join.
