They were one of the biggest userbases that was still federated.

      This is my opinion on it. There was no way we’d be federated with a Canadian instance for long. Though, their defederation does seem to be the admin’s own emotional reaction as opposed to the actually reasonable legal issues they might face.

          Couple of things in that conversation:

          Drawn child porn

          I can just imagine those words being spoken by a prosecutor to a jury and things not going well for the defendant. Kinda scary how far removed my thoughts seem to be from the average person on this.

          instances that allow abusive content is a red line for me.

          Yeah, those poor GPUs being abused.

              Do you think their minds would explode if the sidebar started with a statement that this instance was anti child abuse in all forms?

                maybe! i see rule 4 is basically that but they prolly don’t read it cuz they think there’s nothing worth reading in an instance where literal kids are being raped right now!
