Just FYI, I vet every account I recommend on FediFollows, and I also use server blocklists to prevent making recommendations of accounts from known problematic servers.
If you see something unsuitable/problematic mentioned on my recommended account lists, please DM me and let me know! I do screen everything, but sometimes things slip through the net.
