Many people get bent out of shape they can't ban people fediverse wide lol

As if they completely misunderstood the point of fedi

Let them spend few more years on bluesky then when it enshittifies, they maybe will understand

How do you mean they misunderstood the point?

Do you mean like that instead of banning you just squelch them instance by instance, solve the problem that way?

That doesn't really help disrupt the thing causing the problem. Really just ignoring it.

I don't know enough about this to have a strong opinion, and again I'm not even sure if that's what you meant. School me.

They want people who they don't like to completely removed from a platform like it is done on reddit when commentary is not sanctioned. Fedi's system inherently can't enable this because of decentralization.

Another one, is that someone will get upset because person they blocked can still leave comments under their comments that they don't see. They don't like that person they blocked can still opine in the discussion.

I am not following this. But the general idea of Fedi, you can get kicked out from a bar but not the town.

The idea that social media website can ban you generally because reddit admin decided so is what fedi is addressing among other issues with centralization.

Granted you can still get banned every hot bar in the town but that requires you piss every fucking server admin lol
