As the title says, should we defederate from them? They are generally very spammy and most of Lemmy agrees that they don’t contribute to the discussion in a meaningful way. At the same time they don’t break any of the rules that would cause me to defederate from them, so I thought I’d ask you, the instance users, what do you want.

Please comment what you think, this post will stay pinned for two days and afterwards we will either defederate or not.

P.S. If you ever feel like some instance would be better defederated from, do let me know! I’ll either defederate straight away if they break any of the rules, or create a post like this to let our users vote.

    At the moment I don’t see a compelling reason.

    And I switched from lemmy.world to this instance because they did just that. -> Defederation (from hexbear) for no compelling reason.

    A very helpful discussion, in my opinion, about defederation from hexbear can be found on lemm.ee. see https://lemmings.world/post/525254
