Yes if this had been opt-in. Something that the user had to explicitly enable it. And was thoroughly explained. The worst anyone would have to say about them is that they were overly opinionated. But no one would care beyond that. The reason it's a big thing. It is the way it was hidden and enabled by default. It 100% is a mess of their own making.
Yeah, I use blocklists on bluesky but I have to enable them. That way if I can't see someone's post I know it's not a bug and I can change it myself.
