  3. @xerz is there a way to maybe just nuke all the instances that you don't actually follow or have followers on, but in a way that lets them come back if they need it (for example someone follows you)?

      @lucidiot@snug.moe well, I can get my list of following and followers, go to PostgreSQL to get the entire list of instances mine knows about, and just block the disjunctive union

      which is terrible imho

        @lucidiot@snug.moe I really wish I had been taken seriously and someone had developed a concept for what I guess I could call "permissive allowlisting" or "progressive allowlisting"

        so you federate your posts with everyone by default, but the instances you've approved get prioritized — and if someone tries to interact with you for the first time, a notification with the profile shows up before you can approve such interactions in the first place

          @lucidiot@snug.moe yes, I've explained this concept to devs before

          yes, no one has done anything about it or even replied

          just like my other ideas, such as a timeline slowdown, or like ideas from others that just make sense, like OcapPub

            @xerz @lucidiot That's really the one thing I dislike about fedi: the unwillingness to innovate. We don't merely have to be a slightly better Twitter. Custom emojis and CWs are nice, but they don't change anything about the fundamentals. I've been saying it for years, and yet everything remains the same. This place still feels like when I joined 6 years ago.
