The instance seems to be mostly right wing trolls. I know defederating is unpopular but I don’t think much is to be lost in this case and it can save the mods some headaches.

    @eta_aquarid@kbin.social I swear I can’t reply to you for half an hours. Kbin probably have some issues.

    But, how about nonpolitical community? How about people who do not wish to participate in drama of defederating and only want to talk to each other?

    Since you are from kbin.social, the outcome of this thing does not affect you at all. I wish you do not participate any further to stir the pot.

      considering that I’m definitely not the only kbin user on this thread, no?

      and that “nonpolitical” thing, what does that mean?

      What do we consider as so normal that believing in it or saying it is considered apolitical?

      because the context here is that there are alt-right users on an instance and the instance is either doing a bad job of getting rid of them, or is completely fine with them being there

      and maybe that’s apolitical to you, but not to a lot of minorities

      Then by being a part of the instance that is causing problems they are supporting and enabling the problems. They can continue to participate in the conversations that they wish to participate in by joining the instances they are interested in in good faith.

      Since you are from kbin.social, the outcome of this thing does not affect you at all. I wish you do not participate any further to stir the pot.

      I’m also from kbin.social, but the whole point of the federation, as you JUST pointed out, is to participate in conversations across instances and provide input in good faith to create multiple perspectives. Additionally, just because THIS post is about sh.itjust.works doesn’t mean it won’t have an outcome for kbin.social or other instances as well.
