Shucks. Looks like mstdn.games has on their block list, too. That is annoying. I've requested that QOTO be unblocked. @freemo

@worldsendless Let me know if there is any progress there. I dont think they have ever reported us on anything so very odd.

@freemo I know qoto is just on some generic block lists (as per previous conversation with you), so hopefully it's trivial to remove us

@freemo The owner of mstdn.games, Britt, has been in touch with me and their international admin group will be looking in to it over the next few days.

@worldsendless wonderful. Please let them know they are welcome to reach out to me if I can be of any help.

Did they offer any explanations?

@freemo No explanation. I suspect it's a matter of just using a generic block list. I did let them know that I am in contact with the owner of QOTO and that he is very approachable. I'll give your handle if they ask. I just didn't want to seem too biased about QOTO 😉

@freemo I think that blocklist might be the same reason we lost George Takei after a brief spell

@worldsendless What do you mean lost him? I still see his posts and he responds to me all the time.

@freemo I believe that qoto was one of the first instances he ever joined, but now is on universetodon.

Yeah, I follow him as well. But I remember what a big deal it was that he started on QOTO, and then shortly after he switched

@worldsendless You sure? I feel like if that happened I would have known about it.

Follow

@freemo I could definitely be wrong. But I thought there was a week or so when he first left Musk's instance that he was actually on QOTO

@worldsendless A search for accounts doesnt show anything (which it would if he had migrated). If that ever happened no one ever told me. Pretty sure I would know.

Maybe your thinking of Wil Wheaton from a while back. He was considering joining QOTO and I used to chat with him a lot.
