       @dnsprincessSounds like he just removed a controversial instance from the official Mastodon app directory? What am I missing here?For what it's worth I've seen popular instances say they would defederate with other instances that federate with hate speech, and it sounds like this instance does allow that. (Granted it sounds like they have a decent reason to)

       @freemo @dnsprincess Based on your own account in that post it sounds more like the controversy was because of not defederating like the other instances were. The issue you had with that troll just seems to have brought attention to it.I'm not a fan of "meta-moderating" instances in this way but it is a policy that some instances seem to be implementing. It sucks, but I can understand why Eugen would want to avoid pointing users to an instance that is getting defederated by a lot of others.

       @freemo @dnsprincess Honestly your situation is one of the reasons I remain on mastodon.social and haven't switched. It seems to me like a lot of admins have a really itchy trigger finger when it comes to defederating other instances.As much as I would've loved him to take a stand on this, I can understand that this is probably not a hill worth dying on at this point in Mastodon's growth. Long term I would hope that the joinmastodon list and the official app are basically irrelevant.

       @TechConnectify @RyDawg Strictly speaking you don't need to create split-phase to power your house through a transfer switch.You can get an adapter that merges the X and Y on a split-phase inlet. You'll have 0v across any dual-pole breakers but all of the 120v loads will work fine.The only minor caveat is if you have shared neutrals on two branch circuits that were designed to be opposite phase you could overload the neutral wire if you run max current on both circuits.

       @TechConnectify @RyDawg I'm guessing most people can live without their 240v loads in an emergency unless they are on well water. In a lot of American homes the only 240v appliance is the central air conditioner.

       @TechConnectify @RyDawg Does the Ford home integration kit not output split-phase 240v? I can't find any confirmation either way online, but the fact that it needs to be installed by an electrician and that the truck already supports 240v outlets makes me think it probably does.
