Take your own advice and block me so you don't see this post?

That's nice, but you're wrong. If you run an instance it's your responsibility to defederate from servers that are distributing illegal content or content that is against your policies, because if your don't, you're re distributing that content. Legally it's the same as if you download a torrent and then seed it. I don't know if maybe you live in a different country with different laws, but SDF is located in Seattle WA. Anyway, I'm not going to engage with you further, at this point you're repeating yourself so I have to assume you're a troll.

Guys, you missed the block chain boat, this isn't going to save your IPO

Started with wirebase.org because it's local, but there was a lot of downtime. Switched to lemmy.sdf.org because they're also local, but are also a really old group that still hosts Usenet stuff. I've recently learned that they have never defederated though, and so I'm considering leaving because I don't believe in giving a platform to obvious disinformation and hate campaigns.

I'm asking the mods who run this server to do their jobs, are you telling me that if you're at a restaurant and they bring you the wrong food you call the police instead of asking your server to fix it? Bruh

I never argued there is content I don't like (although I guess that's implied, I don't like it. But I also don't like child porn?). Some of it actually is illegal, free speech has exceptions in the jurisdiction of SDF, but regardless of whether or not you believe that, I don't understand why anyone would want to remain federated with an unmoderated instance.

It's not about blocking content from my feed, it's about the instance not relaying that content. Maybe you would feel differently if it was child porn?

If you're a rational person, you would see the difference in magnitude between what's posted on lemmy.world and rammy.site

Then if SDF defederates from them, leave

What do you think a federation is? If you don't like the decisions of an instance you go to another one. If this instance defederates from rammy.site I'm staying, if not I'm leaving. You're free to leave if they defederate too, and if you felt the need to leave because of it I'd be happy to have you gone.

This is my daily reminder that there are many people on the internet who don't understand history. And also seemingly a lack of understanding of the word federation.

 

(not sure if this is the right community, sorry)

Hi, someone posted this on another server. I'd like to request we defederate with rammy.site and exploding-heads.com as well. I scrolled through some of their posts and comments and it's full of ridiculous anti-left propaganda, for example a post where some liberal Florida family fleeing the state when some child protection laws got passed, implying liberals abuse children and won't live in a state that doesn't allow them to. Just take a look for yourself.

" Admins of Lemmy.ml please consider defederating from rammy.site it has been taken over by right wing malicious actors from exploding-heads.com and the admin is nowhere to be found.

It is imperative that you take action as soon as possible the users on rammy are using the site to spread their messages to a further audience, we must nip this in the bud. If you don't believe me check the instance for yourself, you'll see it dominated with bigoted right wing posts and spam communities."

Edit: So many commenters think this is about political opinions or disagreement. It's not. If I said "Mixing bleach and ammonia is good for you" I bet some of you would call that a political disagreement.

 

Posting before I leave I guess
