@ceoln Sometimes tthe answer is right in front of our face.
@ceoln It is a person whom subscribes to you.

Sure.. i have a first draft, after i go over it a bit ill share and look for more feedback to refine it.
@sp6ina Im writing up a proposal. I can share it with you when its ready for more eyes... in the meantime just help spread the word about the problems.
On a personal note, there have always been a handful of super radicalized servers on both sides that have large block lists... that describes anyone who blocks us... they are almost entierly toxic and looking for a fight. The types of servers that block us are the kind that it is a GOOD thing because otherwise it just welcomes abuse.
Any server you move to will eventually be blocked by these same servers. If you manage not to get pblocked you will at the very least be walled in with them and not see any of the bulk of the Fediverse by that point.

Its an astrophotography picture I took of the Trapezium (the core of the blue part of this picture).
If your curious about the history behind the accusations I explain it all here:

@ypc_bunsen What policy of free speech are you talking about? Our ToC is here, it doesnt say anything about free speech.
We have very specific rules, and that includes this part of our ToC:
> ... hate-based speech such as sexist, racist, or homophobic speech will not be tolerated, be kind to each other.
>
> QOTO aims to provide a community where our users do not fear being punished for their personal opinions. We do not allow people to disseminate ideologies that are abusive or violent towards others. Demonstrating support for or defending ideologies known to be violent or hateful is a bannable offense. This includes, but is not limited to: racial supremacy, anti-LGBTQ or anti-cis-gender/anti-straight, pro-genocide, child abuse or child pornography, etc. While we recognize questions and conversation regarding these topics are essential for a STEM community, in general, doing so in bad faith will result in immediate expulsion.

@farooqkz My opinion is simple... read more hides most of it.. if its abused youll get in trouble, be responsible.. but it cant be abused because read more hodes it. And I find someone **trying** to abuse it their data gets wiped.
@Romaq You want to read a very early first draft I have of a solution?
