It’s still accessible but new comments/votes won’t go through properly anymore

Sounds a lot like how Lemmy communities show up on Mastodon. Maybe one day we can have the reverse as well (Mastodon groups showing up as communities)

It’s funny how you can often tell a comment came from Mastodon because the way people type is just different somehow

I’m changing my diet (to have less meat, especially beef) because of climate change

I can easily separate them, but I choose not to when any money spent on the art still benefits the artist

Server performance is a big one, lemmy.world was really slow for a while because it was the biggest one

If you as user block an instance that doesn’t really solve the problem, Threads is still federated and getting your stuff, it’s just hidden from you

Is it more rational than only federating once they’ve proven that it’ll be fine? (instead of waiting for them to prove they’re not)

The @ thing is Threads, Facebook’s Twitter clone

Pff, get off my lawn

This is awesome! Hopefully it’ll help spread the load among instances. Definitely going to use this to see which instance to move to (and which to avoid)

Ironically, the trouble you’re having with subscribing is because you’re on Kbin. On Lemmy you can just click the links in the post

5% of Reddit is colossal compared to Lemmy’s current numbers. I think even 0.1% would be very noticeable.

Would it help to not log in tomorrow to decrease traffic?

I’ve been thinking of doing that, or to maybe switch to some small obscure instance

Trained on old stack overflow answers, so newer things could be a problem.

People are wary of alt-right folk taking over Lemmy like what has happened with most alternative social media. Maybe too concerned, who knows

I don’t mind that they defederated a random Mastodon instance called “rapefeminists”. Almost all of these are from some list of bad Mastodon servers. Lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works are the only controversial ones (and temporary)

397 of those are spammy Mastodon instances and 1 is Lemmygrad. You can just say they defederated from the 2 other biggest instances.

what action can it enforce beyond banning or blocking?

Defederation, that’s one of the key concepts of the fediverse

Has this ever happened? From what I can tell asking people to fix their issues is the first step, and defederation only happens when they can’t/won’t fix them yet
