I understand, and I very much appreciate you sharing your perspective.
I wonder, did you read our about page before joining. The fact that we are moderated in this way is something we are rather explicit about.
As for if we struck a good balance or not, well I guess thats not for me to decide. Ultimately if the users are unhappy about something I'd want to hear it. Thats why I suggest opening a discourse topic if it is important to you.

Sort of. Most instances will have different rules for what they allow federation with vs what they allow locally.
We do not have a no-nudity rule, strictly speaking, but we do require it to be CW'ed
Our rules are elaborated on in our about page. But we federate with every instance that protects a users right to disengage (a rather strict definition of harassment). Locally we are more strict though.
I see no reason we should be dictating who our users want to follow or interact with though from other servers.
@realcaseyrollins Good point, yes!'
That's it, being a boost it won't show on "Local" feed, but will show on "Home" one.
I do see them in your profile. Thank you, and congrats on your good taste.
Felines rock! 😺
@evaristus Federated timelines are usually improved by you muting the whole instance. There are only a gew instances that show porn so its easy to block it all in one go.
But generally we dont silence instances at the server level unless they engage in harassment.
@realcaseyrollins Couldn't tell, have you posted any pics yet? 😺
look at them kitties... #cats #mastocats #meow

Matthew 22:37-39 is my mantra:
Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’
But Phillipians 4:4 is my favorite verse of all time:
Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!
Headspace indicators (inspired by @pizza):
