Chronicle the life and tale of the fediverse (+ matrix)

Largely a sublemmy about capturing drama, from fediverse spanning drama to just lemmy drama.

Includes lore like how a instance got it's name, how an instance got defederated, how an admin got doxxed, fedihistory etc

(New) This sub's intentions is to an archive/newspaper, as in preferably don't get into fights with each other or the ppl featured in the drama

Putting it behind a 3rd party API that has registration ensures that the 3rd party that is under contract to report it does so. It isn't enough just to block it - it needs to be reported too. Google and Cloudflare report it to the proper authorities.

Additionally, if it was open source, people trying to evade it could just download the open source tool and tweak their images until they come back without getting flagged.

They could tweak their images regardless. Security through obscurity is never a good solution.

I can understand the reporting requirement.
