Thanks, there’s an interesting technical discussion to be had about how to address these issues with Lemmy and the Fediverse in general. I’m not much of an actual programmer although I’ve programmed a lot in school over the years. With that caveat, nowadays I would be inclined to only start brand new coding projects using memory-safe languages. There are so many wonderful ones to choose from nowadays that are not only more secure but also more productive, and most of them can use C and C++ libraries.

Getting back to my previous message though, given the two choices that are currently available, defederate from an instance that may have some issues in some of their communities, or let users decide whether to block them, which one would you chose?
