@dtluna @rationalreview If you want to know, I don't like the culture it brought in. It's like blocklists... you end up tarring a bunch of people, most you don't know, with the same brush... it's very easy to dismiss people when you don't know them and use whatever pet word bothers you to dismiss them. It's frustrating to be mislabelled but that is the nature of the beast. It's better to look at individuals rather than collectivising everyone on an instance and blocking the instance because of the loud few you've been exposed to. You also end up missing out, and it makes communication more frustrating between instances (I haven't been able to help people I've wanted to because they don't see my posts). The only time I have some sympathy is related to legal issues... for everything else, I think you can just block a user that annoys you without resorting to blocking an entire instance. Or better still, just ignore people. They soon get bored and move on. Or just say their piece and get it out there before forgetting it happened.
