Comment on Lemmy.ml is acting as a proxy instance for Hexbear and should be defederated by any instances that defederate from Hexbear
Okay, so you’re fine with sharing spaces with neonazi white supremacists.
No, you’re putting a blanket over them and pretending they’re not there any more.
They would still be active on the site and harming the community at large, you personally just would be blind to it.
Okay so how do we report lemmy.ml?
Isn’t defederation the same thing? Users won’t disappear (and they can also create accounts elsewhere…).
Blocked users or communities can still interact on the wider site and with you, you just won’t see them.
Defederated instances are completely barred from doing so.
It’s the difference between plugging your ears when someone else speaks vs locking them out of your house and not letting them get close.
