It legit kinda sucks that, right after I move on here, some drama happens, and now I can't talk to some of my friends because an admin decided that their server and community shouldn't talk with this one.

I'd normally just sigh and shrug it off, but some of my friends on the other side are people who built part of the existing network and its protocols.

@ariadne Yeah, I might. The drama isn't worth it.

Fucking phenomenal UI, though.

I think this is not about UI, but about a structural feature/bug of fedi, where admins can play social engineers and feel free to limit communications for their users.

I think calckey/firefish refuses to block servers and leaves this decision to users. This is the reason why it is criticised and blocked, but also the reason I like it. To leave social engineering to techie engineers is a terrible idea.

@ariadne @deadsuperhero
don't know, maybe calckey does too. But I couldn't find any info on what is calckey.social / firefish.social blocking. Instead, I found a tool to do that as a user.
