Unreal.
The mastodon dot Art team got a taste of their own medicine in the form of a fediblock request against them, backed with receipts to boot, and to retaliate, they blocked the whole instance that assembled the receipts overnight, because of course they did.
By all accounts, the artisan.chat instance is one that would have a ton of commonality with the Dot Art instance, but one of their users and (former) mods maintained an account that consolidated the Wild West of Fediblock requests into nice neat paragraphs.
The Dot Art admins are holding their users hostage over this, threatening that until the maintainer of this list is demoderated, they'll punish the entire instance by suspending it.
Y'all, this has been called "cult-like" behavior before, but one server admin using their position to enforce moderators on a server they don't run is just...I don't even have words for it.
If you are or have friends on Dot Art please GET OFF.
