I really want Lemmy to work but I’m having a difficult time tracking different communities across different instances. It feels like I’m doing something wrong. I typically just land on the lemmy.world front page and scroll through there, and I see some interesting stuff, but I’d like to learn how to curate it a bit more

    Apparently some idiots from here think it’s fun coordinating a troll-attack on them and they don’t have enough mod power to deal with it, so they removed their connections with us and sh.itjust.works.

      I’m not sure if I was the intended reply, but as someone with a Beehaw account I can say that this defed is intended to be temporary and at the behest of better mod tools and better moderation of the offending instances.

        I answered the one asking what happened.

        Anyway, I get it’s temporary, I’m not a mod but if they say better tools are needed, I believe them.

        better moderation of the offending instances.

        What does that mean?

        Do they expect lemmy.world admins to police 25K people across 700+ servers? I don’t think that’s how it works.

        Or do they mean that they reported harassers to our admins and they didn’t do anything about it?

          I think that the expectation is that lemmy.world needs to show a good faith effort to moderate users coming from their instance. I’m not sure whether they have or have not done this, since it is not my home instance.

            lemmy.world mods cannot moderate content on beehaw, it’s beehaw that has to actively report trolls, I hope they understand that at least.

            And if they don’t, it’s probably better for them to stay defederated.
