Starting in early 2023, Mastodon began providing the ability for admins to protect themselves from hundreds of problematic instances at a time by uploading blocklists (aka denylists): lists of instances to suspend or limit. Despite the potential harms of blocklists, they’re the only currently-available solution for dealing with the hundreds of bad instances out there, so today’s fediverse is very reliant on them.
