Seeing as how the instance is just getting back up, I'm wondering if the stance on defederation is the same or just haven't gotten around to it yet. I remember before we defederated from exploding-heads. A new one that others have pointed out that should be looked into is rammy.site
Thanks for pointing this out - we're focusing on bringing the instance itself back up so we haven't gotten around to bringing everything else back, including blocked instance settings. I added back e-h and lg to that list.
As for Rammy, I started discussions in staff chats. Personally I'm for defederating but it's best not to use the nuclear option without everyone else's opinions. That being said, if anyone has a strong case for / against defederation, feel free to reply here. Here's our defed policy in case it's needed.
EDIT: nvm everyone agreed within literally 1 minute that we should defed. added it to the list. new policy post here
