    Yeah, I’m generally against quickly defederation… But there definitely nothing of value was lost.

    All the random posts from that instance that somehow ended up in my “All” board were right-wing and transphobic garbage. And I mean like really low-quality “news” articles, like the shit your racist aunt shares on facebook.

      Not to mention, every single user of theirs I saw comments from were just absolute jerks, not adding anything of value to discussions, and just making instances that were still federated with their nazi bar worse places to be. “But you can block them yourself” no. I don’t have time to block 6,682 users. No one does. Saying the solution to dealing with poorly moderated instances is for individuals to individually block other users is the same as saying “let’s respond to this rise in nazism in our forums by doing nothing at all”
