This is my best summary of this situation, as I understood it as someone from the outside looking in.

However mastodon.art is firing back that this is all due to low-key bigotry by the admin of artisan.chat inside secret discord channels, which has been going on for a while. Blogposts linked with accusations against each other.

    I have never, not once, heard a good thing about mastodon.art. Are they allowed to have any fun over there? Seems like it’s a server purely dedicated to being superior to everyone else and sniffing their own farts.

      Which is a shame, because the vast majority of Western artists in the Fediverse post exclusively there. If it weren’t for the administrator banning entire instances over the most minor offenses.

    Getting real tired of the mastodon.art people going nuclear on everyone for not following their block list.
