@DJWalnut @shaderphantom @kaniini @kemonine @dielan @freakazoid If apps are likely to get banned for being able to operate over an open protocol with a given instance based on the content of that instance, would those apps also need to hardcode blocks to SmugLoli? Or SPC, or FSE? If not, why not?

I'd be concerned about the precedent set in caving to that kind of pressure.

Once app devs start balkanizing the Fediverse in the face of every PR smear, it will immediately be weaponized by every malicious partisan actor across the entire spectrum.

You'd be surprised what a little pressure in the right place at the right time can do.
I'm far from able the make any calls, but I would say hold ground and refuse to comply with anything short of a direct demand from the Store or a court order. Let them be the bad guy first.
