[Vote] Defederate from instances like burggit moe (solved) - sh.itjust.works
sh.itjust.works
If that instance is too much for even exploding heads https://exploding-heads.com/post/139643 [https://exploding-heads.com/post/139643] then it should also be too much for us. Almost all other instances also block these types of instances. Especially since this instance is Canadian and I bet a lot of us are Canadians and I think the laws relating to this type of content are far more strict here. I would prefer to be completely unrelated to these types of communities and instances. I am generally against defederation but to me this is even worse than the botted instances. Edit: I hope that as people find new instances or new instances like this open up we can proactively also defederate from them.

They were one of the biggest userbases that was still federated.

    Literally what prompted me to make an account here. Would definitely rather be on an instance where they aren’t just doing a reddit% speedrun of terrible moderation

    The discussion there makes me sad. On a practical level defederation is a reasonable inevitability, but the level of vitriol in there is neither productive nor healthy, for anyone.

      I find it amusing how often these groups say “No bigotry” in their rules, but make the exception whenever it fits their beliefs. Almost like it’s virtue signalling or something.

      Not to mention the predictable “No *phobia”. Which in of itself is intolerance of other views.
