Defederation with Instances that Allow Loli and Shota
I've been talking with @[email protected], and we agreed it would be best to discuss this as a community. What are all of your thoughts on defederating instances with loli and shota? My thoughts will be posted in the comments.
I'm against defederation in general. The thing I like most about this place is that we, the users, decide what to see and not to see.
When I see stuff like that creeping up my feed I'll just block the specific community and be done with it.
Defederating a whole instance won't just remove access to negative communities, but also to positive ones that may be on the same instance.
Others may disagree and I don't know about the legal side of these things, though.
I think this is what im leaning towards as well. Maybe instead of defederating we could educate and encourage people to block the content they dont like or find disturbing.
Sounds like a great idea. I'd be definitely in favor of this instead of defederation.
Maybe a pinned post or something on the right sidepanel to explain blocking and content searching.
I like that idea. I'm not a fan of defederating because of poor moderation (beehaw). However I also don't really ever want to see or deal with blocking loli content. Imagine I'm on the bus and it pops up on my phone. Is that something that we really want to allow? I'm still on the fence it seems lol
