@resynth1943 @Hyolobrika @zleap As I stated that answers for one instance, not all. My opinion is every instance admin should write down their rules and then enforce them. Users are free to populate instances that meet their needs. If one of those needs is showing which servers are blocked, don't join one that doesn't.

@jaz @resynth1943 @zleap What if the users never consider that there might be people they can't interact with? Then they can't be considered to have given *informed* consent.

@Hyolobrika @resynth1943 @zleap On a broader note, users of social media have consistently shown that the vast majority don't consider an awful lot of potential impact. So for my money I'd say having a system that puts these issues into the light is a net positive.

Should Facebook inform their users they cannot interact with mastodon users, that mastodon users are not visible on their network? Should anyone care?

@jaz @resynth1943 @zleap I think everyone knows that Facebook doesn't federate.
