What feature would you like to see the Admin's at #QOTO add to our mastodon instance next?
If you don't see what you'd want in the poll just comment it down below instead.
@QOTO I'd appreciate a visual indication (e.g. turn interface elements red) if I'm looking at a user who's on an instance that suspends QOTO or blocks it personally. If this condition can be detected in advance, it would save me the bother of trying to interact with them.

If the instance blocks us you would not be able to see the toot in the timeline, same if the user themselves blocks the whole instance or you (in which case you wont see their toots AND their follow button will be greyed out).
The only way they wouldnt be able to hear you but you would see their toots is if the individual silenced you or our instance, or if the whole instance silenced us. In which case the user can still see your responses they just wont get notified when you mention them unless they follow you.
@freemo What did social.libre.fi impose on QOTO, a silence or a block? If I reply to someone on that instance, click over to their local web interface and view the post, my reply doesn't show up. Similarly any follow attempt I've made there has shown "requested" and never seen any further action.
@khird Neither. I just checked, that server neither blocks us or silences us. I also just double checked by trying to follow someone and the follow request was successful.
@freemo Thanks for checking! I just tried to follow someone and it switched to "cancel request" - maybe in future they'll approve it, but I'm not particularly optimistic. Is it possible to refuse interaction with users who don't have a high enough follower count? That might explain why it works for you but not me.
