@HerraBRE I totally support the feature in a closed network (private, non-federating) which !GNUsocial can be used for as well.
If the feature is used in a federated environment where people choose instances by random from a huge list I would only accept its use if it has a big <marquee>WARNING</marquee>
@nepfag Implementing as a plugin wouldn't be a problem. You could always run a non-federating !GNUsocial instance because you _want_ a private setting with follower scopes and whatnot.
I just think it's not appropriate to patch on pseudoprivacy in a federated web. Better to educate about and improve other tools more appropriate for the task(s).
!gnusocial [help] I have a lot of old account on my followers and on following . I like to remove, delete or disable it (still have some identi.ca group and status.net user's.
witth OStatus updateostatusprofiles.php -a : i found a lot of error, but some can be just disable one hour, then with a counter or something like that.
@herrabre No, the URI of an author is always portable. It is unrelated to anything and should be treated as a random string (some use it for discovery, but that is Bad(tm) and discovery is made not _from_ a URI but _of_ a URI (i.e. you find n advertised URI for an acct:user@whatever.example and then apply some verification method you trust).
It is actuallt just by chance that URIs in !GNUsocial are http URLs.
@zapataz The problem with doing this by IP is that there are starting to be turnkey fediverse instances on shared services. I don't want to accidentally blacklist reasonable.discussion because they happen to have the same IP as spamming.jerks
I'm looking for a plugin that lets admins block whole other domains on !gnusocial. I know this is controversial, but some of the content coming from some servers is illegal in my country. And, as the fediverse grows in popularity, it's inevitable that spam will follow. I know some devs do not want this in the core project, hence, why I'm looking for a plugin.
