Recently I was browsing some communities I typically hang out in and I started noticing Hexbear accounts being... well their typical selves.

Which made me check which account I was on because I've got a few, and when I noticed I was on my Blahaj account I had to check and it looks like we're federated again?

Why?

Semi related daily reminder that blahaj defederated from lemmynsfw because they asked for the closure of /c/adorableporn claiming it was CSAM, and they refused 😐

I moved to iusearchlinux.fyi to be re-federated with everyone and honestly even the tankies, 99% of what reaches the front page is pretty bearable and you guys miss out on mostly good posts. I saw some guardian articles about palestine civilian deaths today for example and realized it was in the lemmygrad worldnews only when I scrolled past it a second time

For point #1 - good riddance. That kind of porn is super creepy regardless of whether or not it is true CSAM.

For point #2 - I might just be getting old, but I don't have time to wade through a "bearable" feed when I can get all the best posts through someone else's hard work. I am glad to have mods that reflect my approximate values and defederate where reasonable.

I will appreciate when people like you repost/link the rare piece of good content that I miss out on though. I welcome views counter to my own, if well thought out or sanely provocative, but sometimes you gotta filter out trolls and creeps.

I can say that I feel comfortable recommending my instance to people I meet IRL, and that counts for a lot with me.

It does make the site harder to navigate for new users and I wish the defederation had alternatives like an instance default blocklist.

defederation from some of the insane ones is good. I’m not a free speech absolutist by any stretch, but most of the communities on lemmy.ml ban any posts/comments that disagree with their worldview. They don’t even try to be a place for polite discussion.

Intolerance does not deserve tolerance.
