Defederated from Feddit.nl. Update: Refederated! (lemmy.world)

Lately we have been dealing with a few abusive members from Feddit.nl and we were unable to get in touch with the instance administrator.

Part of the problem is the instance's open registrations which do not require you to enter an e-mail address during signup. This in combination with an inactive admin is a recipe for abuse.

We hope this is only temporary but we have to do this to protect our users.

Edit: we use fediseer, have a look https://gui.fediseer.com/instances/detail/lemmy.world

Edit 2: We got in touch with the Feddit.nl admin. Email requirements were added to the sign-up process and we're setting up a communication channel. So that means we are federating with Feddit.nl again!

You put the term “wrongthink” in quotes, as if using racial slurs and promoting white supremacy (which is what one instance was defederated for) is just normal discourse that should be tolerated. The things they’re defederating for are not minor or petty.

I’m done with this, I don’t think you’re actually sincere and just want Lemmy to be Voat or 8chan.

I literally did not use quotes. I'm very confused. Are you mistaking me for someone else? I will say it again, I'm very sincere. White supremacy (along with any type of racism) is fucking stupid. I used the term wrongthink because it goes both ways- lemmygrad would consider capitalism wrongthink.
