    The first one is who controls it?

    Ideally, nobody. Anyone could make their own blocklist, and one could choose to pull from any of them.

      I would like functionality similar to this. One problem with a big list is that different instances have different ideas over what is acceptable. I’d love to “subscribe” to, say, Lemmy.world’s bans and then anyone they ban would get banned on my instance as well. Of course this makes a bigger mess to clean up when someone gets banned by mistake.

        Yeah, that would be where being able to choose from any number of lists, or to freely create one comes in handy.
