So, I hear the maintainers of #Tusky, my #Mastodon client of choice, have chosen to take responsibility for how their software is being used. Good! Let this be the start of a new era in free software.

Sure, from a technical standpoint, hardcoding a blacklist in a network client is inelegant. Internet domains change hands or cease to exist all the time, you get stuck with outdated code, and you won't be around forever to maintain it. But that's just a way of saying *technology exists in a sociocultural context*. It's not some eternal marble hall.

@notimetoplay It's problematic, childish and to top it all off ineffective. I don't trust the software developers to decide what is and isn't an instance I should be joining. An automatic default block would be better, in order to protect users by blocking content.

@ZacharyHerold @notimetoplay thankfully, the source code is publicly available, so you're well within your legal rights to create a Nazi-friendly fork of Tusky (like Purism did)the rest of us are not going to hand white nationalists another platform in a shiny gift-wrapped box

@rey @notimetoplay Well, we are, that's how free software works. You just gotta accept that not everyone that uses your software is going to be a good person
