Due to a (now former) admin of the instance anarchist.nexus calling for a member of our team, as well as anyone else they call a zionist, to be murdered, the instance has been defederated.

We're currently discussing how we will proceed with this situation and whether it will affect lemmy.dbzer0.com, which is mostly run by the same admin team, notably excluding the person who used to be on the anarchist.nexus admin team.

We will share further updates once we have them.


Update 2026-04-22 23:25 UTC: anarchist.nexus federation has been reactivated.

We are still discussing this matter, but there is currently no point in keeping anarchist.nexus defederated while lemmy.dbzer0.com is federated.

Honestly, with comments in this thread being removed by mods and the delays and prevarifications over this defederation, I'm starting to think LW is run by children.

Do better.

Streisand effect.

Dederates to protect ego and censor. Only makes post when people ask questions after days of nothing publicly. Then also doesn't make it a real announcement.

People say it's a bad move to censor things. People then get censored for saying it's bad to censor things.

A lesson in why .world shouldn't be taken seriously.

It's mostly half a dozen very loud people who have a particular agenda.

The previously defederated instance has 165 total accounts, lifetime.

Oh well as long as you’re only bullying small instances. Carry on!

Wouldn’t want to ban Lemmy.ml for saying Zionists should die. Would you?

Bigger means stronger and that means it's justified!

The heck does that have to do with anything?

[-] pinto@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago

So it's okay because you're bigger than them, got it. Have you guys defederated from HilariousChaos yet? Or is the open Nazi talk comfortable with you?

I'm embarrassed I donated $10 on the last donation ask if these two are the quality of admins Lemmy tolerates.

I'm outie.

It is impressive and sad to see how much one of them, ie the one removing comments, is trying to argue it's everyone else's fault they are abusing power.

Also unsurprisingly actual bad comments are left up
