Why is join lemmy promoting a pedophile instance?

In case anyone is wondering, it's rqd2.

The definition of paraphilia is "a condition characterized by abnormal sexual desires, typically involving extreme or dangerous activities.", which can inclde pedophilia.

It has recieved 4 censures from fediseer due to the content contained on that instance

Not a good look for Lemmy to be promoting any instance like that.

You can see for yourself here

Update: A pull request was sent to remove the sus instance. It should no longer show up soon

  • Seems like the kinda thing that comes down to "because it hasn't been explicitly told not to yet". It's a computer grabbing from an ever changing pool of instances based on parameters, not a person hand picking what they like. Computers aren't usually aware of social ques or laws...
