    too little too late, but they needed to be a little less locutus and a little more jean-luc.

    For anyone on a different server, you can always personally defederated from a server under Settings in the Block tab at the very bottom. I eventually ended up being defederated from hexbear.net and lemmygrad.ml.

      Defederation is the nuclear option. Until now we had removed any communities we weren’t comfortable hosting, and treated users on a case-by-case basis based on how they behaved in our communities, which worked for a while but became untenable.

      When we started this project the admin team felt that welcoming outsiders into our (wholesome, sane) Star Trek communities was the net-positive action. But as I said it became too much to handle so we unfortunately had to cut the cord.

      Not propaganda when mods agree with it, duh. I look forward to people cheering this defederation crying “censorship” when they post an unhinged rant on an ml instance and get moderated.

      Seriously! When I browse “all” the timeline is absolutely choked with insipid liberal political propaganda coming from .world.
