Announcing the Oliphant Social BlocklistS (plural!)
Thanks to the excellent FediBlackHole, and my Fediblock homies, I decided to stop providing a single opinionated (mine) blocklist and work with other sources to provide multiple blocklists from various trusted sources to provide a new #MastoAdmin ultimate choice and transparency in which lists they want to input.
This page has mostly been rewritten to present them for you:

Announcing the Oliphant Social BlocklistS (plural!)
@oliphant Love the idea of trying to find a system that isnt a single opinionated person... But curating a list of many biased lists is no better. Worse yet by the look of things it weights things by the number of block lists and doesnt weight for the size of the adoption of a block list. For example I suspect most of this comes from block lists derrived from block counts that heavily favor small and single-user instances.
There needs to be transparent, receipts, and good due dilligance if you want to create a good block list people can trust, you cant just average all the shitty block lists and expect to come up with a good block list.
