The Funkwhale music platform is alive and in active development, and they're working on a feature to filter far-right artists off the network. Some Fediverse self-hosters are divided on letting a third party decide what should be allowed in their library.

I support that fight against Nazi content, but hard-coded blacklists in a open-source Fediverse software? Something is off here.

Hope they find a better way. Make it the default behaviour, include it in all tutorials, defederate.

Yeah I like being able to opt-in to a specific block list, or having it enabled by default but individual instances can disable it (more to neutralize bad faith arguments from trolls who want to normalize nazism), even though I want it effectively banned.
