Makes me kinda wish that when defederating you could select a one word label for why. Like a fixed list with several options like pedo, spam, harassment, abandoned, etc and a default of other. Make it a bit easier with a big list like this to say, oh 1000 of these 1400 all selected "racism" when defederating so it's probably very racist and I should also defederate. But if it's a lot of "other" or inconsistent reasons maybe I should spend a bit of time digging.
This actually gives me hope. The biggest Instances coming together to stand up for good values and fight off vermin like Nazis, Pedos and other pests of Humanity.
Some of these im... Curious about.
Presumably the names are dog whistles (when they're not just openly stating their purpose)... But IDK the whistle so I'm curious af.
Not curious enough to get put on some list by actually checking them out though lol
It's funny/sad the stark contrast between the ones where you can't really tell why they're defederated from just the name vs the ones where it's extremely obvious (and how little in-between there is)
Not aware of any of these, which is nice, but iddqd caught my eye since that's a Doom reference! Overall I always thought the Doom community was pretty positive (at least going by Doomworld forums, and various Doom streamers, as I remember them). I thought surely it must be some misunderstanding! Oh maybe they didn't reply quickly enough to take down some drive-by hate speech, but that was it.
Anyway, holy shit, do not go to that lemmy instance. It's rotten to the core. I'm going to go take a shower and play through Episode 1 to cleanse myself now.
What did poa.st do? All I know is that fashy HAL guy in the comments thinks the head mod is cringe and stupid and that seems like a good quality. Lots of very specific rules against cp tho which is a big red flag
Surprised Gab isn't the record holder, it was the big deal example the fediverse advocates held up as how awesome the fediverse is at moderating itself, especially the "defed if federated with" rule instances started using to actually quarantine the users from Gab
Eientei? From touhou? Wonder what's in there.
Also was expecting to see the pawoo competitor misskey.io since several japanese artists went there after Musk bought twitter.
Does kiwifarms.cc even exist anymore? I remember hanging out there while the main site was under maintenance, but it seems to have gone offline since then
This is the reason why Lemmy doesn't grow as much as it could. Keep defederating until all instances are single islands with 10 users each and no useful content.
