What is Defederation?
Defederation means we have disconnected our instance from another, and users from our instance will no longer be able to see anything (communities, posts or comments) coming from it, and their users won't be able to see anything coming from ours.
What will get an Instance Defederated?
Our goal is to avoid defederation, but we will do so under the following circumstances:
-
The instance spreads overwhelming amounts of drama, hate or negativity.
-
The instance is mostly made up bots, and or promotes spam.
-
The instance allows the harassment or doxxing of others.
-
The instance knowingly hosts CSAM or other illegal content.
Has FMHY Defederated Instances?
Only two, both for breaking the 1st rule above:
-
exploding-heads
-
lemmygrad
Things to Note:
-
There are circumstances where we may block a specific community within an instance, rather than blocking the entire instance itself, but this is very uncommon.
-
Remember that if there's a community you don't like, you can block it entirely in settings.
-
Keep in mind that our goal is to keep this community safe, so if you see something that breaks our rules please don't hesitate to report it.
-
If its something urgent, you can always contact us easily via Divolt ๐ฌ. Its connected to our discord, so there are mods online 24/7.
Libs of Tiktok was on Instagram and already is on Threads, along with the rest of the usual suspects: https://kolektiva.social/@ophiocephalic/110667668701596654 They have already started their shtick of quoting random people to direct their followers to harrass the target.
Wait. Threads requires an instagram account. How can libsoftiktok be on threads if she is permabanned from IG.
Are you even sure this is true or is this just a rumor that youโre repeating?
Edit: there does appear to be an account called libsoftiktokofficial. Not sure whether itโs really Chaya but it has plenty of anti-trans propaganda
Ok fair, I'm not familiar enough with Threads lore to know if libsoftiktokofficial is really Chaya or not, and why the account is up if they were banned twice. It looks like their last post is from 6 days ago, but I'm not sure if I'm seeing the up-to-date view from the web interface from Europe (and honestly I can't be arsed to try a VPN for that). Perhaps the whole situation on Threads right now is just early platform chaos.
In any case, the whole discussion might be moot, if any of these happens to Threads:
On the off chance that none of that happens, though, I'm not sure what is to be gained from federating with an instance that has orders of magnitude more users than the entire fediverse combined (even if their count is inflated) and the only moderation policy is "whatever makes Zucc richer".
Libsoftiktok started on Twitter. And while she did have an instagram account, it was banned from both instagram and Facebook, while the Twitter account had its shadowban lifted after Musk took over.
Given that Meta is presenting Threads as Twitter, but โsanely runโ, and that libsoftiktok has already been permabanned twice, it seems likely that she will also be banned from Threads. Certainly this is a weird point to hang your case for defederating Threads on.
