Comment on Opinions wanted: defederating with bot spam instances

  I had the same experience. I had to use the lemm.ee default web interface to block the two repost bots.

  Huh, I went looking for it just now and can’t find it, so either I already blocked it or maybe lemmy.one already defederated from it? ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

  But yeah… bad administration needs defederation. Bad users need blocking/reporting.

  lemmy.world got a bunch of heat from defederating from hexbear pre-emptively, but it seems like that was the right call. Then they got ddossed after defederating from pirate communities. Not saying that’s CAUSATIVE, just “interesting”. ;)

    Yeah, I don’t want to defend from hexbear or pirate communities though they’re fun
