Hi friends!

I didn't announce it very well but we don't require anyone to block anyone else any more thanks to an improvement to our home timeline I made.

Cheers!

@Felthry remote conversations between people you follow & people who are suspended (ie. domain blocked/not on our whitelist) will no longer show up in your home timeline, period

except when someone replies to themselves in the thread, which has been a bug on masto for a long time

@vahnj oh, that's good. I had noticed some replies weren't showing up, I assumed it was something like you won't see people's replies to people you don't follow or something (which would be a good feature, honestly, maybe optional so people can still use that to find friends-of-friends??)

@Felthry the way it works is this:

1. you won't see private replies from a person you follow to a person you don't follow (the original usecase)
2. you won't see private replies from a person you follow to a person who is domain suspended (the new use case)

if that makes sense
