It was banned on Reddit because it is racist, hatefull and spread Conspiracies.
In my new community I expect the exclution of racist communities. It is easy now
with defederation. Nazis can do whatever they want on their instances, but the
instances I want to be part of should not amplify their shit and flush it into
our timelines. The instance-admin of !thedonald@sh.itjust.works
[/c/thedonald@sh.itjust.works] did not reply to my message. Big instances seem
not to defederate with them. The new TD may not be a success, the point is not
to give Nazis a platform like it is happening now. Fans of TD are racists. Where
are the instances that show face against racism? edit: to contact the admins:

It’s only a failure from certain perspectives. It happens to be my perspective too, but I can understand where others are coming from. I suppose this is one of them fancy irreconcilable differences thingies.
Personally, I suppose what mostly peeves me about these kinds of approaches is that they don’t really seem like solutions. Anyone from a no-no community is still free to employ the time-honored trolling tradition that is alt-juggling for harassment campaigns. Or, I assume that’s the case - if there’s one thing I really hope everyone at the table can still agree on, it’s that extreme privacy-invading measures for preventing alts is a step too far: there’s vulnerable voices across all parts of the opinion spectrum. Anyways, because alts exist, defederation measures always felt a bit performative from my perspective. But far be it from me to judge whatever helps people sleep at night. 🤣
I want to take the explanation that this is just a stopgap while moderation tooling develops at face value, but something tells me that isn’t the whole of the truth. In the end, I don’t think I’ll care all that much no matter how this shakes out; touching grass is really fantastic for helping maintain perspective. 👍
Will note, I have been publishing a few scripts into the admins chat on lemmy.ml, to assist with moderation, and catching some of these types of content too.

Hopefully, we get some built in tools soon too.
