Under a centralized system, bans are terrible. But federation is awesome because it's perfectly okay for an instance to be ban-happy. Just join another instance. (I'm on lemm.ee because I want to see everything)
Not only is it fine, but I think we actually need a variety of instances; no-bans, some-bans, lots-of-bans, and excessive-bans. People should have the choice.
