Hi,

I remember reading that lemmy.world defederated from the exploding heads instance (rightly so imo), but now i’m seeing their posts on my feed.

Did the hack from the other day affect the defederation? is this a bug or something i have to change the settings of?

Thanks.

    I thought I saw a weird uptick in different content yesterday than what I had been used to seeing on lemmy.world. Just way more extreme political stuff on the Left and Right. That makes sense now.

      The posts newly Federated after the block list got emptied, so it’ll take a little bit for them to go away, since I don’t believe Lemmy retroactively removes content from defederated instances.

        That makes sense with what I’m seeing. I don’t see any new posts, but yesterday I saw them on the 2nd or 3rd page if I kept scrolling.
