I found qoto.org from this list under discussion. I brought in my wife and at least one friend, working on the other.

If the list maintainer refuses to discuss the delisting privately, it will be discussed publicly and @freemo should just as well be leading that discussion since the delisting appears to be the result of MAGA/QAnon-like hate and misinformation by those claiming to hate fascists. Funny how that works. If the list maintainer does not care for the larger, off Mastodon very public discussion, the list maintainer can damn well open up on the original, more private venue @freemo attempted. That's the reality. People may not like it, but sometimes all options suck and reality doesn't much give a damn.

One more thought... If Mastodon as a project is going to operate on the spread of hate and lies, it can damn well die like Truth Social or Twitter. If the people in charge are going to be the monsters they claim to oppose, they can damned well own it. I'm not married to Mastodon. I have my own project I'm participating in. I have options even if all options suck. But I demand honesty and transparency if I'm to trust in the milk of human kindness from so-called anti-fascists, and I'm not seeing that. If I keep my expectations low enough, I'll never be surprised.
