As far as I see that instance is a far-right cess pool. Everything I’ve got from that instance were low-quality transphobic “news articles”.

    I don’t love this idea, would really prefer instead the ability to block the instance in the same way I do communities/magazines and see a petition for them to be auto-blocked which I could then remove if I wanted.

    Really don’t like the idea of defederation unless there’s like active crime going on there.

        Have you even looked that some of the posts in their homepage Ffs? Defederation should be a thing when the whole instance is a piece of shit. Which it is in this case…

      Part of the reason we left reddit is because they felt entitled to impose draconian conditions on moderators. Defederating is a useful moderation tool until the Threadiverse develops better ones.

      If someone is willing to ignore the social norm of wider society’s “Don’t say the n-word” why would they respect the social rules of a small community?
