Taylor LorenzCan anyone who understands how this platform works better than me explain why we can’t have crucial harassment tools like restricting replies to mutuals only, or mass blocking? Also any reason we can’t get link previews on here? Just curious if these are things that can ever be implemented 🙏🏻
TJ@taylorlorenz defer to others on the link previews (which should work on some interfaces) but if you're getting abuse from a certain instance, your instance admins should be able to ban that instance entirely.

New here as well, so there's questions... Ok, mods can block entire instances, great. But can't abusers simply spin up their own private instances and repeatedly abuse people? Or is it not that simple to do?

Mike MasinI have a new, shiny instance. Fourth Estate, aka @jeff hosts it for a very reasonable monthly fee. I'm on the smallest plan, 1-5 users. So I didn't have to tinker with the internals. Moving my account was easy, too. DM if you want deets.
