@design_RG I agree entierly.
Gab is 95%+ disgusting content and have never seen anything of value come from a GAB account yet... but, as you say, they almost never bother us or our users. They just stay in their little racist hole spewing racist crap and I never see or hear from them.
The damage they do is far less, as you say, than most of the fediblock crowd who largely are blocking good non-racist instances and causing fighting and discord between groups that should and would otherwise be allies against the very racism they claim to oppose.
Its sad, and disgusting.

@freemo You mentioned something yesterday, yes, but it did not make much sense, I didn't have the details.
She was online earlier this morning, and a small group chatted, then I looked back and found her topic about implementing White Listing, 26 h ago or so.
People couldn't pay for the value of the work we all put into the network and our own instances, the content we produce, publish, share.
It's deeply disturbing to me -- that those people are actually WORSE than the gab gang they prat on about. Those, I have blocked and not heard for for six months. We don't bother each other.
The fedi block gang are the undercover Fascists in action at this moment.
Despicable ass holes. pardon my language, unusual. Just too much.
Waitor: What can I get you?
Me: I will take some chicken periods, well cooked with some bovine lactation, some of it in a cup, fresh, and the rest with a bacterial infestation and old enough to solidify, you can put that on the chicken periods. As a side I'll take the head of a pig boiled with spicies until it produces a slurry, then sliced and fried, thanks.
Waitor: we are out of milk
Me: ok then the fresh squeezed liquid from the reproductive organs of a tree, any one will do.
Waitor: We have orange juice
me: that is fine, thank you.
Waitor: Wonderful, thats one omlet with cheese, a side of scrapple, and a glass of orange juice. Coming right up!
We had a tornado in the middle of the riots here in philly..gos isnt fucking around with these rioters :)
Tolkeins original first page for the lord of the rings... Look at that hand writing!
SWEET, WikiJs 2 finally went from beta to stable.. Still missing some planned features as "coming soon" but its impressively feature rich and easy to install and manage!
I've been waiting for a good potential replacement to mediawiki better oriented for documentation!

“To condemn the #rioting—which I believe to be a moral and political imperative—is not at all the same thing as opposing the #protests. Many observers have been reluctant to do the former because they wish to avoid the latter. I maintain that this is a grave mistake. […] #Progressive intellectuals who make excuses for #streetviolence, even in the face of the awful killing of #GeorgeFloyd, are making a monumental moral and political error.”

I saw the following question on FB where I answered it Thought I'd share teh question and answer here:
How long it takes to absorb and re-emit a photon when an electron's trajectory gets changed?
----------------------
After a free electron in space is effected by a photon it will, as you suggested, accelerate. But after taht point it is no different than any other electron with a constant velocity moving through space.
Now for starters there is a fundemental mistake in your thinking. Free electrons can not absord a photon, not in the usual sense. The only way an electron can be effected by a photon is through compton scattering, in which case the electron will absorb part of a photon, change its wave length and the energy absorbed will cause some degree of recoil, so the electron will accelerate. After that point, as I said the electron will be no different than any other electron moving at constant velocity through space.
To answer your question as to when they will emmit a photon, well, just as they can not absorb photons in the free space, they also can not spontaniously emit them. What can happen however is inverse compton scattering. This is where a very fast (usually relativistic) electron interacts with a low energy photon and imparts some of its energy to the photon increasing the energy of the photon and ultimately slowing down the speed of the electron.
So the answer to your question is, never, or whenever the right photon comes by, whichever applies to the circumstances.

A relevant post, in my opinion.
I believe the choice of ignoring, Muting and Blocking content and Users, remote instances is BEST dealt with by the User him/herself.
Mastodon HAS this built in, ANY user can do it. I consider it one of the great features of #Fediverse, as compared to corporate networks (TW, FB and others).
Follow link in Quote below for full post, part of a related discussion, ongoing. Thank you.

I am glad to know that -- as that should be at the user's discretion. Otherwise it's Censorship.
To be absolutely clear -- I personally BLOCK all content from gab and affiliates, a personal user decision which is open to ANY fediverse user (depending on their platform, slightly different ways to implement).
I am not a flag bearer for free speech, considering an inherent human right, but the limiting of user options in the clients is wrong headed, imo. You opinion is probably different, but no offense meant or taken.
We could just ignore these fringes, blocking individual users or instances as needed in case of conflict.
Says me, a free thinker, opinionated and #FediReporter via my blog.
#QotoJournal worthy theme and mention.

Why are people scared of the riots and looting?

100% of american cops who have managed to keep their job for more than a year are bad people, there I said it.
Any cop who is a good person would have arrested dozen of their fellow cops by now for abuse of their position and likely gotten themselves fired long before a year had passed.
So when people say "not all cops are bad" my first instinct is, unless you were just hired a week ago, bullshit, your as bad as the rest of them.

As I've revealed in my last Patreon post, I've been working on adding end-to-end encryption APIs into Mastodon as an upgrade to the direct message system.
Any and all technical details available at the moment are here:
https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/pull/13820
An implementation guide for app developers is being worked on.
