Why did Beehaw defederate from Lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works for poor moderation and not lemm.ee and discuss.online?
You're viewing a single thread.
Whilst we're discussing instances to defederate from, I'd really love to see lemmynsfw defederated from, like a lot of porn things there's an underlying current of misogyny (and other bad stuff) coming from it and it bothers me and since this instance cannot upgrade I keep having to play whack-a-mole with each new community I come across in the All tab since I can't just block the entire instance (yet).
Edit: Plus for a 'nice' community, it doesn't make much sense to keep such an instance around ioo. It would be different if there was an underlying current of respect for the subjects there but that doesn't seem to be the case, just seems to be a mix and match for whatever people's tastes are and since we live in a patriarchal society a lot of it is going to be bad.
I second that one, lemmynsfw is something else entirely. Not just that it's porn but porn instances attract less savory people, especially bots and OF promoters (which are almost the same thing) so probably would be a good idea to axe them for instance health.
Well, there is a problem with porn currently in general in that we live in a patriarchal & misogynistic society so the kind of porn that is created often reflects that, objectifying women (and perhaps other genders in different ways).
I don't see lemmynsfw being a solution to this whatsoever from what I've seen.
So yes whilst porn itself could technically be respectful and create something better, give better examples, it doesn't.
I do not see the problem necessarily with promoting OF etc as sex workers do have to make money and that is their job, however the less savory people who are attracted by the types of porn I listed above do often have problematic views, so agree with you there.

It would be no different than allowing people to post ads here on Lemmy for Pepsi, Liberty Mutual, and HeGetsUs. If someone made ad accounts to post that shit you'd ban them as an admin, why is OF spam any different to you?
Fair enough.
I canβt just block the entire instance (yet).
FYI, this feature is available on Lemmy since December 2023: https://join-lemmy.org/news/2023-12-15_-_Lemmy_Release_v0.19.0_-_Instance_blocking,_Scaled_sort,_and_Federation_Queue
Yep, but this instance plans to move off of lemmy and onto sublinks so they cannot upgrade to >=19 as it'll break a lot of their backend stuff.
I see, makes sense to ask for defederation in this context.
I'm somewhat surprised to hear we aren't defederated from them already - I don't see any of their posts. I guess I have my settings in such a way as to not get nsfw posts
Last I checked we weren't. I see their stuff pop up in All, a few times though it's not frequent now I have blocked most of the ones thst have popped up.
I don't have 'NSFW' posts blocked, just blurred because unfortunately that term is used poorly and kind of scattershot on lemmy whereas on mastodon, content warnings are more nuanced here 'NSFW' is used for more things than just lewd unfortunately.
I dislike that it's not at all nuanced and there's no real content warnings and 'spoilers' don't work in every app but hey, suppose I can go request those things be added or fixed I guess.
