In support of user autonomy, it would be nice to see Mastodon clients notifying users when a profile they’re searching is on a remote instance that’s blocked by their instance, and then offer to load it for them directly if they still want to see it.
Instance admins have the right to choose what gets federated to their servers, but users shouldn’t be totally at the whim of those admins decisions.
