Our instance is only defederated from one other instance and it’s lemmygrad. My question is why? It doesn’t seem like a hate group or anything as far as I can tell. Can someone fill me in?
I hope I posted this to the right place; still getting used to how lemmy works. If I should post elsewhere, let me know.
@nondescript_citizen “Why do these people defederate from us? We did nothing wrong.”
Yep, that’s how it goes. Thin-skinned people will defederate from you just because you federate with some other people. Some instances defederate from you because of arguments over frontends. Some instances defederate from everyone (Gab).
They usually have this funny idea that if they defederate from a group of people, that their posts get through and get exposure but not vice-versa. What they don’t get is that users typically mute instances that don’t federate with them, so it ends up being two-way most of the time.
