The issue with the list is that it clearly suppresses evidence that is not in line with the operators opinions, effectively lying by ommitting relevant context to distort the truth.
See my list on the talk page.. Despitte being respectful and showing a mountain of evidence to disprove the evidence claimed for QOTO on the block list none of this evidence was actually added (in fact in response they added another entry claiming I harassed her). Instead despite the polite mention I was blocked.

This isnt a case of "admins make up your own mind".. this is a case of explicitly lieing, presenting on the cherry picked out of context evidence to support your agenda and suppressing all evidence that disproves the claim int he block.
Is that really a block list you want to support? I mean come on the majority of instances on the list dont even bother providing evidence.
@freemo @toxomat @shelenn @ceoln A list that blocks instances solely for "ancap, libertarianism" isn't credible. To be fair, I block the hell out of sites for "communism, Marxism." But that's just me. I'm not representing myself as an authority that others should follow in that regard.
We do need a central library of instance categorizations so that people can make their own choices. This isn't it.
Agreed, that is actually something I'm working on with the United Federation of Instances I am trying to build #UFoI
The purpose of coalitions would be to basically curate lists using due process for various purposes, thus ensuring the lists are accurate and include all evidence. Which is what you are talking aboutt.
See here for the current proposal, if your interested in it let me know and I can connect you more with the discussions (its democratic so all voices welcome as it is still inn formation):
