Blacklist by who??
Hivewatchers for starters. This is the current list: https://spaminator.me/api/bl/all.txt (I beleive?)
There are a LOT of naughty people. 🤣
I do have one personal caveat. I was never happy with the processes. I have no idea if they've changed (for the better), but I did have lengthy conversations with Hivewatchers regarding my opinions, which is simply what they are. Opinions. I don't have the answers. Apart from Birching, we really should bring back Birching, I feel. 😉 🃏
Birching is a great word! I do appreciate the way Hivewatchers has changed and the work they are doing now
It's a thankless task. And I suppose a necessary evil. When I immersed myself in it three or four years ago, I didn't like it one little bit. I especially didn't like the premise of going to Discord, a public venue, to plead a case. It kind of reminded me of Bear baiting. Maybe that's changed?
I think people are still required to go to Discord, but I see warning messages in comments now.
And helpful welcome messages, too!

Yeah. I'm not experienced enough to detect Hive people's porkies, so I may have been deceived by a few who seemed to have genuinely made a mistake. 🤷♂️
TBH, and you won't like this. It's why I'm not all that keen on Hive. It's a massive amount of work and very time-consuming. I'm not sure how you're supposed to enjoy a platform when you're constantly looking over your shoulder. Checking your text and images is not anywhere else; you've referenced anything you've used, it sucks all the fun out of it, as far as I'm concerned. It's why I don't post much, if at all. I do enjoy #Waves, though, and the conversations it can spark. The problem with (Ecency) Discord is that it sucks me in too much. I was spending WAAAAY too much time with you fantastic lot (I do miss you all).
Say Hi to anyone in the room that remembers me, for me. #Hugs
Join in Ecency chat! I use it much more often than Discord.
If you are new to using chat you may need to clean up the communities that you are not interested in chatting with by using the 3dot menu.
