I think I know what #mastodon instance I'd like to move to. It would have local and global timelines disabled and therefore without any need for moderation or #fediblock . I only care to see content which I follow.
Is there such a thing?
@dudenas Yes, #fediblock is your finger on those timelines. :)
Not sure I understand you.
I'm in a search for solution where I could follow anyone, not only whom my instance admin allows. Now every admin protects their community in their own way and forbid me from interacting with decent people on "badly moderated" servers. I really hate it. Thinking about different approach.
Following todays story: https://tilde.zone/@dudenas/109502144640401393
@dudenas Yes, sorry, i missed that post, assuming you had all the choice you needed. I am suffring from the same thing here, seems journa.host is blocked here as well. I've the feeling, that unless we don't host ourselves we'll always be subject to such admin decisions.
Yes, that is what I'm thinking. Eventually everyone will want to self host a single user instance, and this is terrible.
But actually moderation is only needed to protect shared timelines from dirty content. And what if I had a server without shared timelines? (I do not read them anyway, but I sometimes read several other home timelines from other instances in #fedilab )
So, if we have no local and global timelines in the server, there is nothing to moderate, and I am free to follow anyone. Am I missing something? Can mastodon work like that?
@dudenas @jayrope
Maybe not everyone hosting a single user instance, but instances where most if not all of the users are somehow an actual community, where most people know (or know of) each other AFK.
That said, I don't think there is a technological solution to the dire social problems that the #fediverse is now making visible.
