If I create an email service, a lot of people sign up to use it and after some time I tell them I will no longer deliver emails to gmail.com, would that be alright?
Isn’t this exactly how gmail treats a LOT of other email services? Email is a mess of spam and whitelists and is barely usable as a result, partially because there is no human moderation.

It would be more similar to you blocking gmail.com from sending you messagess because thier users keep flooding your server with spam.
This happens every day. Unfortunately a small group of assholes ruined it for all of us until tools are available to deal with them.
Why would you do that?
Gmail users send a lot of hateful messages so I decide to cut off all communications with them.
This is a ridiculous comparison. E-Mail is a standard for communication. Lemmy is a social media. This is absurd. Social media needs moderation.
