Personally I think not having karma limits is nice currently! I understand why they were used but grinding karma as a lurker on reddit was frustrating.

    Which is important if you don’t want the Fediverse to become the next Voat.

        Proactively banning problematic users before they cause issues is necessary. Prevention is better than cure.

          Ah, the old guilt by association groupthink.

            On principle I agree with you, people shouldn’t be banned until they break the rules. But practically I can’t ignore the other guys point, it might not be fair to everyone but it certainly seems effective in protecting a given community from trolling

              You’re making a strawman argument and putting words in my mouth.

                  Blocking a server because they don’t share your blocklist takes the Fedi out of the Fediverse.

                  Eye-for-an-eye makes the whole world blind.
