If we defederate then I probably wouldn’t be against it but I lean more towards having individual users block individual communities.

I myself have blocked a whole bunch of hexbear communities because I’m mainly a comments section guy and I find their style of posting to be really annoying even though I occupy the same end of the political spectrum.

However as annoying as I find many of their users, I haven’t really seen anything that would warrant defederation. Sure you’ll see some tankie propaganda but you’ll see that over other Lemmy instances too.

On an unrelated note, I joined Lemm.ee to ease the burden on the larger instances but I’m very happy to have found this place being led by an extremely level headed person. Thank you
