@normative @anildash @digiphile There is no personal decision being made. If there were, fine.

@zeynep@normative@digiphile of course there is! There's literally no ability to use a blocklist without affirmatively choosing to. -
@anildash@digiphile The point is clear imo. Few centralized, opaque blocklists with no recourse & few alternatives is a problem. - Show replies

@zeynep@anildash@digiphile Adopting the list is. And surely more meaningful than my whimsical nanosecond blocking decisions. -
@normative weird, you (whimsically?) blocked me so your profile is unavailable on iPhone, but i can see (but not follow) you in iPad app
