I might not be understanding something about the fediverse, but isn't this like if you couldn't send or receive email from a friend because you use gmail Google decided to block @icloud domains?

Like, you're not forced to follow or interact with it, and are free to block it if you can think of a reason to, I just don't see why such an open platform used to limit users in this way

They haven't gone that far yet, but they're on their way. I didn't think they were like that in the beginning either, but they certainly were advertising themselves to be the best place to go in the beginning for some unknown reason. They now try and take over every community and/or shut down smaller ones. An admin was curating things, which isn't a great sign. Granted, it was just an admin, but I'm not welcome there anymore. They act like reddit, so I think of them like reddit. That's just my take, you're totally welcome to disagree, and you obviously do. I didn't see the value in spreading out in the fediverse, now I do.
