translunar.academy is apparently not blocked by the chinese firewall, i know it's probably because it's not a huge website but it's so funny to me 💀
@winter@social.translunar.academy Why are you blocked by mastodon.art anyways?
@sorrowl their admin blocks practically everyone. they probably block us because she hates the instance I used to be an admin of (disqordia.space), and hates everyone who ever interacted with that instance's creator even one time (for example her current crusade against Calc and all of firefish)
@winter@social.translunar.academy Yeah, I heard something about their feud with Calc, but didn't know they were this aggressive in blocking.

While im pretty sure mastadon.art is one of the heaviest blocking instances, this isnt very accurate.
The tool is grossly inaccurate simply because if an instance is blocked and then later unblocked, the list doesnt remove it. So the numbers are usually significantly inflated.
You can get an idea though of the real numbers by looking at the timestamps and seeing the last time the block was observed.
@freemo @sorrowl @winter i believe it was a deliberate design decision to leave historical blocks in place so someone couldn't weasel their way out of saying "we never blocked you!!!"
inaccurate is still not the word i'd use, i think you just want something on top of the API that filters out all non-current blocks which i think would be useful actually
