Instances are not shadow banning, they all listed in instance list page.
I didn’t get the mod drama thing. I guess this guy mixing instance admins with community mods.
Also, I don't think there is that much blocking between instances except Beehaw, since they want to create a refined user base.
Edit: what I was telling here is only applies to Lemmy. Looks like things are different for Mastodon side. So this comment may have a realistic view. I just don’t have enough experience on there.
The largest instances all block many other instances and they are all in favor of federating with Meta as well.
To be fair, a lot of the blocking are of instances that are causing lots of moderation problems, since they post things that upset many users.
Most users actually prefer a walled garden experience so they don't have to see things that upsets them. As long as they feel the walled garden has sensible rules.
I don’t think that applies to Lemmy. lemmy.world, sh.itjust.works, lemm.ee, lemmy.ml and other big instances are all federated with each other.
I really can’t talk about Mastodon or Kbin though.
Ya hopefully that was an insanely swreping bit just now. I want NOTHING to do with fucking Meta
You don't have to fuck Meta, but unfortunately Meta will still fuck you.
This is getting way to meta for me to understand ;)
that’s… that’s illegal?
