It’s quite sad to watch unfold, but the admin of rammy has been basically MIA all month and exploding-heads users and admin (which we have been de-federated from for a while) has taken notice and has decided to invade and set up shop there to just generally push their stuff into the federation. Entire front page is a hate fest against LGBT people and just general foul bigotry. Hopefully the rammy admin comes back and cleans stuff up, and then we can hopefully re-federate (if they want to.)
Just wanted to give a heads up in case anyone was curious why another instance was added to the blocked server list :/
Fwiw it’s cool that there is even a way to deal with it as individual communities unlike Reddit which would have to have site admin intervention
And that intervention would probably take a while to happen, tbh. I still think defederation should be the absolute last resort, but I’ve read mod tools are still not on the level to adequately deal with this sort of stuff.
