The one thing I am most sad about on Masto is that sometimes there are amazing people on an instance that Awoo doesn't federate with, and I feel really sad when I see "This person is great" messages but have no idea who they are talking about because I can't see them...

But... Awoo's whitelist system does so much to keep awful instances or users away, and I wouldn't ever get rid of it.

@Raspberryfloof feel free to put in a federation request for 'em, or link the instance admin to the form! 's over at awoo.space/about/more, under "I'm an instance admin. How do I federate with awoo.space?"

@Raspberryfloof I honestly feel that awoo.space's decision to be a walled garden was an important one for the history of the fediverse. Not just for the safety of its members, but for having the courage to do something that wasn't officially supported (or even intended to be possible) by upstream.
