Based on concerns from both the admin team and most users here, the lemmy.ml admin team decided to add wolfballs.com to our blocklist. There is just too much reactionary content that breaks almost all the rules we have here.
It’s natural for open instances like this one to develop blocklists organically, and so far we’ve only felt it necessary to block 2 instances. If there’s any concerns about other instances that we should keep an eye on, let us know.
Ah you are one of those people who call everyone they disagree with a fascist. I suggest you read through this post.

I’m not involved in the internal workings of this site, but I will say that there’s a reason that companies tend to be split into departments. Separation of concerns is a big deal and having people who are both the core developers also be admins of a major instance (the largest instance? I’m not sure) is risking burnout and conflicts of interest in terms of attention.
I dont think that definition is entirely correct, but lets consider it for now. First, “armed defense” is impossible when we are talking about an online community with no real-world element (I also havent noticed any promotion of violence on the site). Second, the users on wolfballs are at times more critical of capital than those on lemmy.ml (but with a different focus, like the pharma lobby).
So no, I dont see any indication of fascism, its just right-wing.
Well put.
I agree. Those people aren’t fascists, or even similar enough to fascists for the term to be useful.
That doesn’t make them not dangerous idiots. Of the sort that, in the right circumstances, can be scary to other people who have done nothing to deserve it.
