tired: blocking a single user based on their activity

wired: blocking their entire instance with them

@eal is this what you meant @quad

@eal @quad he’s on quad.moe not anitwitter.moe

@taiz @eal Your instance. Not mine. That's the silence list for octodon.social

@quad @eal fuck i didn’t even know instance owners could block other instances

strangely enough i was able to add anitwitter.moe to toodon?

@taiz @eal Silence just means they're hidden from public timelines. Not that they're blocked. You can find someone manually. But you won't see them on the federated timeline.

Also it's the opposite. I think ONLY instance owners can block other instances. Users can only block individual users as far as I know.

@eal @taiz There's a "hide everything", not block though.

But I don't know what the difference is.

@quad @eal i can’t find unsafe.space , is it down or is it somehow blocking the search feature for it?

@eal @quad that means it’s not even about filtering the federation, it’s about trying to silence them for believing in free speech. smh

@taiz @eal That's how most of these LGBT communities operate. They often direct prejudice against anyone who doesn't specifically believe in their opinions or openly allow people to disagree with them.

@eal wait what? even if i follow them?

@eal considering jumping ship now, any ideas on how to do it?
