I’ve been advertising this place as a instance with a good balance of moderation
and open federation . While I’ve have seen clear lies being spread about
exploding heads I figured the lemmy world admins would have the sense to
actually investigate such claims before making rash decisions. I want to know
why it was defederated when the admins of that instance have been good about
removing hate speech. Was any attempt made to contact the admins to talk about
any potential problems?
The problem is that what I’ve heard is that Lemmy doesn’t have a moderation tool to do that. In principle I dislike defederation because I want to be able to see anything I want, but if they don’t have any less extreme options it’s understandable.
I respect this sentiment but I also do not believe in doing stuff to police the content that is posted that is racist in terms of deplatforming…
Removing from the front page? By all means.
