Most furry instances are pretty chill since the HOA doesn't want anything to do with furries or anime, so any HOA alligned furries either learn to chill out or go to bluesky.

What is HOA?

>>26460
Home owners association, a silly word for people that wanna use fedi like twitter and abuse fediblock with defederation by association with other instances they've defererated with, like how the HOA would hassle ya for following someone that did something bad on twitter. They ignore the full set of tooling available and end up in a very small, homogenous archepelegio of too-big-to-moderate instances that give people trying it for the first time a bad first impression.

internet jannies who think very highly of themselves and believe they know better than their own users who they should follow

It's more than that though. Some sites like twitter are basically unmoderated, so the users end up becoming jannified in themselves trying to create a moderated pocket using user-end tooling. Then they get to an actually moderatable-at-scale space like fedi but they keep the mindset that they'll have to keep using the block button for everything, and keep blocking by association for risk mitigation when that just isolates your instance on a federated model and eventually leads to overcrowding on single instances with people trying to remain in contact with that crowd, eventually leading to unmoderatability.

it certainly seems like a lot of fediverse users bring twitter baggage with them. like they think they can somehow block specific users from reading their public posts on the federated microblogging network. it boggles the mind
