@chaekyung Problem is all those will get blocked haha
@realcaseyrollins There's sites outside the fediverse like this one
https://linuxreviews.org/Fediverse#Public_Fediverse_Servers
(there is a edit source button there, btw)
#google and #microsoft can drop lists like that from #googlesearch and #bing respectively. Good news is that it's not up to any #fediverse admin if they do or don't.
I think lists outside the fediverse matters more than those within, new users looking for a good instance will search the web, not the fediverse network.
@chaekyung Do you run that website?
@chaekyung @realcaseyrollins Hmm. I'm thinking a Free Speech Network with a logo sites can display and code of conduct which protects free speech.
@realcaseyrollins That video is dumb. There are tons of instances of all fediverse services, you can't expect all of it to have good moderation. Just because something uses Mastodon doesn't magically mean it's good, it's all about the moderation and community. The benefit of fediverse is you can use other instances if you don't like the first one you tried, and explore alternative services inside fediverse without having to give up the people you met here.
@realcaseyrollins What if the telephone network worked like the Fediverse?
"We are sorry, this call can't be placed because someone using the provider of the customer you are trying to call once said something one of our board members deemed to be offensive"
All the admins banning long lists of other instances, in many cases not knowing why the instances on the list they copypaste are on it, is a problem.
One solution is to make guides listing instances that are not like that.
