@stackPeek You are currently on kbin.social so I assume kbin.social has been suspended (a.k.a. de-federated or blocked) from that server. On Mastodon, "Suspended" means totally blocked. You cannot follow anyone, they cannot follow you. All communication, including API requests, are blocked.
A Mastodon instance blocking kbin.social, is, to me, irrational behavior by the Admin and an extreme disservice to those on the server.
Can you share the name of the Mastodon instance?

WOW. That's really really bad. And I doubt it's going to be easy convincing artists to move to other instances.

Based on the "Moderated Servers" section, it looks like their reasoning is "Not moderating far right content"
This is insane, because I literally never seen any remotely negative post in kbin.social, let alone far-right content
