Our instance is only defederated from one other instance and it’s lemmygrad. My question is why? It doesn’t seem like a hate group or anything as far as I can tell. Can someone fill me in?

I hope I posted this to the right place; still getting used to how lemmy works. If I should post elsewhere, let me know.

Clicked on it and the first thing I saw is “women’s bodies were meant for the male gaze”

I’m not a fan of lemmygrad at all but yeah thats wild lol

My only gripe with using FMHY as my main.

Edit: looks like it’s been fixed! Thanks FMHY admins!

Wait, can we talk about this? Nobody said anything so I tought we were waiting until this server became a target to defederate them or something, I basically have everything from that instance blocked

Yeah we’ve discussed it more and we decided we’re defeding exploding. As far as why we’re defeded from lemmygrad, they’re just known for causing problems similar to exploding heads and we just want to keep things drama free.

If you guys can link some bad posts that are actively encouraged by the instance then I’ll add it to the blocked list. (This is why it isn’t blocked right now - all I’ve heard is that it’s just right wing, which doesn’t constitute a block.)

Sounds like more defederation is needed, not less.

Or just no defederation at all.

Eyy yo what the fuck. I didn’t know that. I’ll likely unsubscribe if they keep them in their loop

And this is why I wish instance user blocking was an option rather than just the nuclear option of defederating.

Just moved over and I can say first hand that these guys aren’t as bad as you say. Its mostly edgy comedy and politics.

Oh I know how that goes. You start with people knowing it’s ironic then it gets filled with people who don’t know they are being made fun of.

Hell, the entire Flat Earth thing started as a joke. Just a bunch of people going “wouldn’t it be funny if we started memeing about the earth being flat?” And now here we are a few years later, with flat earthers launching rockets into space and subsequently disregarding the results that they get.
