Only if you want your feed to be an echo chamber. In my opinion the best thing about the fediverse is that you can choose the rules and values you want to adhere to through your instance choice, without cutting off interaction with others unless you defederate their instances.
The frequent calls to blanket dismiss anyone on those instances are an unfortunate overreaction in my opinion.
Agreed. There are some tone deaf people from those instances who think their perspectives are the only true ones, but that's true of any sufficiently large and unified group.
