When does this take place? I just looked at my hosts file and the lines

Yeah sensible but they should allow to not show on the home feed for a profile

Twitter is gab 4, parler is 2, and truth is 3

I think if Hex isn't willing to deal with their "minority" of trolls/hateful users, then I think banning their server is justified. I don't want to punish the majority(?) but I don't know why we should have to deal with their toxic users when our servers wouldn't allow those kinds of users.
