Wondering how sustainable is to keep your servers federated to big servers like mastodon.social

I have started to see people I'd rather not see, so I thought that would be a good reason to have my own instance and block whichever instance they're coming from, but what if they're coming from one of the big ones?

I am considering it may even be positive to not federate that much. Just block all by default and cherrypick who you federate with.
