@altlink Would be really noble of any admins to set all their users' accounts to follow @altlink by default.

@resist1984 @altlink noble? No, that would be overstepping their role as admin.

@vesperto @altlink 1st of all it's normal for Mastodon admins to configure user accts to follow some accounts by default. Also, admins make their own rules for their server and if you don't like it, you go elsewhere. It's not overstepping because admins control the quality of msgs coming from their server. Think of it like an anti-spam policy.

@altlink @vesperto links are socially irresponsible & detrimental, so a good admins seek to control them. The altlink bot is overly non-intrusive IMO. If I were an admin, I would do more to get CF links out of public view.
