Yesterday, users of mstdn.social instance lost their connections to artists at mastodon.art instance ( src: https://framapiaf.org/@Curator@mastodon.art/110570978375947500 ). I hope giving visibility to this issue will help them to restore the broken bridges.

We're no longer blocked by mstdn.social, but I don't know if that's subject to change. Unfortunately, when an instance suspends another instance, all follow/follower relationships are immediately broken and aren't recovered by un-suspending, so you will have to find and re-follow your connections there.

@davidrevoy for me the particulars of this incident aren't the most important thing. My takeaway is that no instance that wants to be taken seriously should be able to take action like this based on just one person's feelings. Collective decision making helps us be better than we would be alone.
