My Fediverse blocklists

Documentation on which Fediverse blocklists I offer, how they are made, their differences, their caveats, and their intended use.

thinking about winding down my shared blocklists tbh. it’s draining and tons of almost entirely unpaid labor to find, archive, and catalog receipts. one awesome person pays a dollar a week but it’s really not enough to justify this effort.

i might write a retrospective and advice for anyone else who wants to try.

https://seirdy.one/support/ if you want to convince me to keep going.

edit: keep your money if you’re broke. please.

Support me

Support my work by sending me donations! This helps me continue Fediverse moderation, blogging, and coding.

the main thing that’s kept me going is knowing that there are no alternatives that offer non blocklist options like receipt archives.

if more people donate I think I’ll keep going but right now I’m running on a depleting reservoir of goodwill and concern that alternatives will do worse.

Fedi runs on burnout.

@[email protected] the eternal cycle of fedi, hopeful creature starts a fedi instance/project, keeps it going off of goodwill for a few years, starts burning out/running into financial issues, and eventually steps down leaving another instance/project with a new owner to come in to replace them, and the cycle repeats

happens to instances, software forks, or really any fedi related project, some last longer than others, and those that put thought into organizing the work as a team early on usually last longer (or at least can continue after the original founders burn out by gradually exchanging with new blood) but there is only so far one can keep going through the power of goodwill alone

at some point fedi is gonna have to accept that if we want fedi to be sustainable without an eternal cycle of burnout and admin/developer churn, that the work can't continue being done out of goodwill alone
though this is a problem with open source in general not just fedi
