RE: Hivemind API being updated to allow following mute lists

in Hive Improvement4 years ago

This is optional right? I don't plan on using any mute list at all. It rings of censorship to me and lately I've been extremely sensitive and wary about what has been going on with the liberal media and social sites.

Yes, it is completely optional.

But it's worth mentioning that the phishing mute lists will mainly be used to hide posts from accounts that put dangerous links on their posts (e.g. links to web sites with malware).

So unless you are a careful person that never follows external links, it will probably be worth following at least a phishing mute list. Such lists are not political, they are just aimed at protecting inexperienced users from real criminals.

As long as it's not political, i.e. anti-conservative bias, then I might follow a list.
