Greetings,
Based on user feedback and the importance of preventing illegal content, theATL.social (Mastodon) will utilize the Oliphant “Tier 0” block list, which represents the consensus block lists of 60-80% of Mastodon Instances.
The domain block list will be applied to Lemmy in the next day or so.
Of the instances on the block list, there are some with which theATL.social users have followed users, posts, etc. The list of those domains is here:
- shitposter.club
- raspberrypi.social
- qoto.org
- press.coop
- obo.sh
- noagendasocial.com
- newsie.social
- mstdn.jp
- mastodong.lol
- mastodon.se
- masthead.social
- liberdon.com
- feral.cafe
- femboys.love
- cryptodon.lol
- blob.cat
- berserker.town
- bae.st
- abestos.cafe
Barring any immediate or urgent reasons, these domains will remain for at least 2 weeks fromt the date of this post. If users wish to keep these domains off the block list, they may reach out to me. Otherwise, these domains will be blocked at that time.
…or if someone has a reason why these domains should be blocked immediately, please let me know.
Note that both qoto.org and newsie.social are moderated as “silence” on the Tier 0 list. Please don’t block them! I have no objection to them being silenced/limited. My understanding is that it will only affect the federated timeline (though I’m not sure about boosts – they are not mentioned in the documentation). It may be worthwhile to silence everything on this list while you decide if blocking is needed.
Agreed. I can confirm that they were not blocked, and I do not see any reason why they should be blocked.
It’s gonna take me a few days to go thru the list but I’ll start with vote to not block these domains:
- newsie.social
- press.coop
- raspberrypi.social
A twitter bridge? Forgive my movie reference, but…
Likewise, I can confirm that they were not blocked, and have no reason why they should be.
