I done defederate. Seems censorship and contrary to the concept of the fediverse.
But I also run my one user instance, so well…
How do you stop really nasty stuff from getting to your instance?
(I know nothing about how and when fediverse transfers data)
Since I am on a single user instance, the instance receives only stuff from the communities I subscribe to.
This means that I just select what I am interested in.
So far after over 1 year I never seen a single “dangerous” piece of stuff, so I think the risk is a not overstated.
The downside is that my “all/everything” feed is identical to my subscribed feed, bummer.
As someone who also runs a single user instance, lemmy uses the protocol activitupub, and the way I federate my server is auto federate with any instance federated by piefed.social bc I like rimu@piefed.social ethics.
Came for the ‘should degenerate’
What does it mean to defederate?

PieFed has this in the admin area:

So admins don’t need to stay on top of the latest defederation drama, just choose who to outsource that work to. From that baseline you can add more defederations manually.
