: A curated subset of `tier0.csv`, containing what I deem the "worse half" of it. This contains instances I really do recommend most people block, or at least avoid. I try to make it a suitable candidate for a "default blocklist", and use it as reference when I evaluate the quality of other blocklists.

This list is **not comprehensive;** to keep this list small, I excluded many really bad instances. I take into account not just severity, but also notoriety and likelihood of reaching/harming people on other instances (e.g. spewing toxicity in others' mentions, running block-notification bots, etc). Bad instances that mostly keep to themselves are less likely to cause problems for a new admin, and therefore less likely to get included in this minimal list. Finally, I take into account controversy; in order for this blocklist to fulfill its purpose of widely defederating the worst actors, no entry on it should be too controversial outside of the parts of Fedi already likely to reach tier-0.

The original goal was to make a blocklist appealing to instances with a more laid-back moderation approach, so that they would actually implement a decent blocklist and limit the reach of the worst actors. Unfortunately, the final `tier0.csv` blocklist is 350+ entries; this is still a bit much for the moderate instances.

I pared that down to `FediNuke.txt`, which contains instances that were both really bad _and_ well-known. It's kind of hard to overlook how shitty each instance on the `FediNuke.txt` subset is. Common themes tend to be repeated unwelcome sui-bait[^1] from instance staff against individuals, creating or spreading dox materials against other users,[^2] unapologetic bigotry, uncensored shock content, and a complete lack of moderation.

I think if you're starting a well-moderated instance, Tier 0 is a decent place to start (that's why it's in the standard CSV format). You should add and remove entries as you see fit. If you're making a client and want to give it a built-in blocklist, or are looking for a good "default" blocklist: FediNuke is a good option.

I used to work with {{<indieweb-person name="Oliphant" url="https://oliphant.social/@Oliphant" itemprop="mentions">}} when generating lists.[^3] Oliphant offered [his own respository of blocklists](https://codeberg.org/oliphant/blocklists) ([GitHub mirror](https://github.com/sgrigson/oliphant)). Using an approach inspired by my `tier0.csv` generation process, he made lists generated from consensus across other lists. Unlike `tier0.csv`, the generated lists don't have significant manual curation. Oliphant's tier-1, tier-2, and tier-3 blocklists required decreasing levels of consensus. Until recently, he also offered a "unified max" blocklist containing ~~any entry common across at least two other blocklists~~ <ins datetime="2023-05-02T08:38:00-07:00">every entry from any trusted source</ins>.

One of Oliphant's sources was a single-user instance with many blocks made for personal reasons: the admin was uncomfortable with topics related to sex and romance. Blocking for personal reasons on a personal instance is totally fine, but those blocks shouldn't make their way onto a list intended for others to use. The admin of this instance gave permission to use this blocklist. However, **they did warn us of this fact.** With my own encouragement, **we decided to use their list anyway.**

[^3]: A "contact stance" refers to beliefs around whether it's okay for adults to have sexual relations with minors when a significant age-gap exists. Pro-contact means support for such relations. I consider this support for <abbr>CSA</abbr>. Regardless of contact stances: I generally agree with blocking instances that allow lolicon, shotacon, sexualized babyfur, etc. but FediNuke is for the most extreme cases of every category.

[^5]: The "jacketing" suffix refers to labelling someone something they're not to discredit them, often catering to stereotypes group-think. In the context of queermisia, queermisic pedojacketing refers to labelling queer people pedophiles on the basis of their queerness; this is especially common in institutionalized queermisia.

They all display original organic results that you can't find on other engines, and maintain their own indexes. Unfortunately, they don't quite pass because they don't crawl the Web; most limit themselves to a specific set of sites.
