RE: Hive Improvement Proposal: Decentralize blacklists on Hive
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
I know a couple of people who got added into a blacklist for the flimsiest of reasons. We are all here for different reasons. While there are a bunch of accounts that wholly deserve to be on the current blacklists, I should be able to maybe filter out one or two accounts I believe are wrongfully on it.
Basically, have the blacklists as they are and enable users to whitelist the accounts they prefer for their own blacklists rather than starting from scratch.

Allowing people to select the blacklists they want is part of the change we're making.
We have to make some kind of change anyways, because current usage of blacklists slows down Hivemind too much. As we need to make a change for performance reaons anyways, it looks like a good time to also make this improvement, since it's relatively easy to do.
Edit: I just realized your suggestion was slightly different, you're suggest allowing a user to make a whitelist to reverse blacklisting. We could do that also, but I don't think it's necessary, since blacklisting just provides extra information that a user can ignore anyways. It is not a muting function.
