Never seen this before and thought it was interesting, a feature of Mastodon apparently? Wondering if this feature might allow the moderator to note why they took such action against the account in question? I’m mainly curious. The account that brought this up is @alt_Budget_cuts and appears to be a person or bot to be bot that randomizes content (cool art, youtube videos) along with the same bright yellow posts about workers/companies/budgets to try and drive people to a “How to get rich” website…I don’t really know what the this account is. Looks like they have a twitter account too but can’t tell what they post on their because fuck Elmo. The website doesn’t seem to be selling anything that I can tell…the ideology and what exactly they are trying to say is confusing…maybe it’s bad (racist or something) and I am just too dense to tell.

The photos and etc that they post are actually pretty cool so I’m sure a lot of people follow back when they request to follow…I will definitely not…wondering what the mastodon.world admins saw or encountered that necessitated this? What types of reasons would you choose to mute and not ban?
