If you think someone is breaking the rules, then report them. If you don't want your shit to be removed, then stop breaking the rules.

It's really not hard. We will not ban anyone because you don't like them, but I will ban you if you keep this up. You obviously don't care anyway, so go ahead.

I removed your last comment because it was an ad hominem attack. I suggest moving on, none of this stuff is on topic and harassing someone across posts is not OK, irrespective of how justified you think you are.

You can debate what they say as much as you like, but don't attack the person.

Hard to say, we'll have to wait and see who gets it.

I personally think there's no point for them to try and get it back, they'll most likely come back under a different domain.

I agree that it's a difficult balancing act. Overall though, the role of a moderator is to facilitate conversation in accordance to the rules, not enforce their own narrative on the community. These steps are not perfect, but they are an attempt to try and get moderators to moderate more and dictate less.

I think that was an old rant from before we were even federated, as to why I didn't want to bother at the time. It was an exaggeration, overall we've been getting along great with everyone else we've federated with since then.

I wasn't completely off base, for example a bunch of instances defederated us simply because we're "EH 2.0", even though they never interacted with us. At the time we were already defederated by a couple of the more zealous ones. The fine gentleman who runs Fediseer is recommending to everyone that they defederate us for being "chuds". It's all pretty childish.

Hey, I just randomly stumbled on this and thought I'd give you a reply, for what it's worth. We've got a whitelist because there are thousands of Fediverse instances out there and many of them host questionable content (things like loli porn). It's too much risk to ignore them, and too much effort to weed them out.

We've added everyone listed on join-lemmy.org who hasn't de-federated us. I guess if you're not on there then we just haven't noticed you yet. I've added your instance to our whitelist now.

If anyone else also wants to be added and isn't yet, please do reach out.

As you can tell by the comments in this thread, many people feel like they know us well based on what they have heard. I guess we are guilty of having a handful of members who used to be on the old exploding-heads instance, so we must be EH 2.0. All anyone would have to do is open our site and browse through the endless pages of shitposts for themselves to figure out how silly that is.
