Lately we have been dealing with a few abusive members from Feddit.nl and we were unable to get in touch with the instance administrator.

Part of the problem is the instance’s open registrations which do not require you to enter an e-mail address during signup. This in combination with an inactive admin is a recipe for abuse.

We hope this is only temporary but we have to do this to protect our users.

Edit: we use fediseer, have a look https://gui.fediseer.com/instances/detail/lemmy.world

Edit 2: We got in touch with the Feddit.nl admin. Email requirements were added to the sign-up process and we’re setting up a communication channel. So that means we are federating with Feddit.nl again!

    I think so too, especially if and when users get the ability to block entire instances. That will prevent some of the defederation-for-wrongthink (in either direction, it doesn’t matter), and as it matures, I think the “accidentally hosting CSAM” will be less of an issue as well.

        Uhh… what quotations?

        I’ve already said, I’m being completely genuine. And it’s why I said “in either direction”, because lemmygrad defederates from stuff too.

            I literally did not use quotes. I’m very confused. Are you mistaking me for someone else? I will say it again, I’m very sincere. White supremacy (along with any type of racism) is fucking stupid. I used the term wrongthink because it goes both ways- lemmygrad would consider capitalism wrongthink.
