Jeez, how hard is it to just block people on Mastadon?

What does Mastodon have to do with Fedi?

nothing

ActivityPub

The “rely on defederation as a solution to everything” implied here is the real issue, not the spam.

Or the reliance on successful instances not growing out of control, without having a protocol level hard limit on size.

Right, the obvious outcome was obvious here.

Well, assuming these are actually the core assumptions and not a misinterpretation of them. E.g. maybe Mastodon went in a different direction than ActivityPub was designed for. I'm not familiar with the history and reasoning.

Yea no idea, I just know this outcome was obvious, so either they were okay with it or just didn’t know how to fix it and hoped.

JL. Not referencing Fedimint. Correct?
