   Here's a rather amazing article about the fediverse that I can only recommended to every new user. https://robek.world/featured/what-is-gnu-social-and-is-mastodon-social-a-twitter-clone/ #introductions

      @lain I did a bit of a survey of Mastodon blacklists and many of them block shitposter.club of course, also some block social.heldscal.la

      @lain so, a good number of new users, if they read that, may be unable to interact with the author et al.

         @taiganaut yes, it's sad, but what can you do. Maybe more users will look for nonblocking instances after reading it.

            @lain it'll settle in time. For now I recommend instances with very light blacklists (particularly 'suspend') to friends when recruiting

            @lain I worry abt noobs joining instances which suspend-block non-safespace instances after one complaint. But, it will settle in time.

               @taiganaut I've been silenced (aka default blocked) on mastodon.social for a while, so I'm kinda weary about this blocking business.

                  @lain your instance or your account? I thought 'silence' only hid the silenced instance's users from public timelines, is it more than that?

                     @taiganaut everyone thinks that, but it's a default block. No one will see anything of you unless they follow you.

                        @lain does that include your activity in a thread with people from various instances? Basically leaving semi-invisible holes in the thread?

                              @lain ughhh. Yeah, making that behavior more fine-grained and/or with (debatably) better UX is very unlikely to be a priority any time soon

                                 @taiganaut I can completely understand removing people from the public timelines, but this removes them from every conversation, and that is too much, I think.

                                    @lain I went digging and found these issues on the mastodon github. Not exactly it, but related. https://v.gd/3U6b6w https://v.gd/MAeCYJ

                                    @lain It's funny bc I'm still on gnusocial but once I migrate, I may theoretically become motivated enough to open a ticket for this.

                                       @taiganaut we're planning to have a gnu social -> pleroma migration path soonish, so maybe you won't have to move :)

                              @lain my idea: small stubs for silenced messages in a thread. Reader can click to expand or can truly hide, either setting could be sticky

                                 @taiganaut that's how mutes work on pleroma (and qvitter I think?) And I really like it.

                                    @lain Seems a good middle ground. Perma-expand or perma-silence from stub itself. Or turn all stubs off like it is now, for safespace folks.

                              @lain but that feature would require discussion with @gargron and someone to care enough to write it if masto admins/users might want it.

      @lain interesting to learn about what went on on quitter.se though, given that it's my node for now... buckling under masto load now I think
