Disappointed that you're downvoted, because you're right.

And it actually made me remember my experience few months ago on that exact same Mastodon instance, mastodon.art--they blocked almost every other instance!!! Even something like kbin.social mind you! I don't even know why they did it, I think they said something like alt-right content (CMIIW), but in my experience using kbin.social, I've never seen those kind of content. The worst thing I've seen from kbin.social is just... porn. It's a good instance over all

Sometimes I think defederation is what's going to ruin fediverse. I get that it's necessary, but if done like this, it's a bad thing.

I think if I'm gonna recommend Mastodon, I'm going to just recommend them the most popular instance. IMO the best thing about fediverse is that many different instance can talk to eachother, but that doesn't mean it's wrong to be "centralized"

Mastodon.art is well-known for being trigger-happy at blocking and usually even frame false accusations, their trch.lgbt block has made people lose any trust on them, but there are still people still think they are doing good while in fact they cause more harm tho
