    I thought we defederated from those Stalin fanboys? wtf?

    I’m not really sure what made you think of that? Pretty sure ernest hasn’t posted anything like that.

            Lemmy.ml is not the tankie instance. Lemmygrad is.

            Lemmy.ml is simply run by a tankie, however that so far has not impacted the instance much.

            As lemmy is currently growing faster than kbin, we would only be hurting ourselves on the ‘official’ instance. Instead better instance blocking on a per user basis just needs to be implemented.

                    Yeah, “go away if you’re not happy” is really the lamest answer possible. And he is more like “captain reddit”, always freaking out about popularity and subscribers.

                I don’t believe it is about getting their userbase for the benefit of this instance but rather that defederating from a large amount of users not participating in any malicious activity on the basis of someone affiliated with that instance posting malicious works on another instance is (at least in my opinion) antithetical to the idea of the fediverse.
                Doing so would step into the fallacy of collective punishment

                I know this might come as a massive shock to you but there are many types of people in the world with differing opinions that you don’t have to agree with.

                Do you support child labor if you use twitter? Do you support the CCP if you open a tiktok link? Do you support middle east genocide if you support an american company? Chill out.

              Wow I thought all of the crying about “tankies” was blown way out of proportion but lemmygrad sure is a special place 😖

              I agree being able to filter/block everything from a domain on a per user basis would seem the reasonable middle ground.

              Otherwise you’ll just end up with constant demands to defederate based on conflicting moral codes.

              I don’t think growth should be the primary driver behind any instance, it should be about building and supporting the community on the instance.

              Lastly I don’t think your argument is very persuasive, pick an idiology/group you feel are immoral (nazis, kkk, isis, etc…) and see if your own argument would convince you.

        Probably a good idea. You could find an instance that suites your needs or run one yourself as mentioned in other comments here. Instead you would rather be toxic and while I dont speak for the others, it’s probably not welcome.
