If that instance is too much for even exploding heads https://exploding-heads.com/post/139643 then it should also be too much for us. Almost all other instances also block these types of instances. Especially since this instance is Canadian and I bet a lot of us are Canadians and I think the laws relating to this type of content are far more strict here. I would prefer to be completely unrelated to these types of communities and instances.

I am generally against defederation but to me this is even worse than the botted instances.

Edit: I hope that as people find new instances or new instances like this open up we can proactively also defederate from them.

    I’m not a fan of de-federation by any means, but instances that allow abusive content is a red line for me.

    Brb, hiding behind some VPNs to investigate.

    e: ew. Loli images, admins approved/created the communities. (If you don’t know what loli is and don’t want to risk an FBI raid, wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lolicon)

    Aye

      ‘Loli’ content allowed and encouraged by admins.

      There are some fairly explicit images in the headers of some of their NSFW subs.

      It seems they’re trying to be some sort of image repository for NSFW images on topics that would be problematic.

      I can’t see this as an issue that could be resolved by talking to the admins (as they’re the ones creating the communities).

      I’m for de-federation. Loli content is content glorifying child sexual abuse and crosses the red line.
