  • Hi!

    I’m not speaking on behalf of this instance or anyone else on here.

    I’m not sure you had the opportunity to see the content of the thread where defederating was discussed? I don’t really browse all and only subscribe to a few communities outside of this instance so I am not super well versed, but when I read that thread, I learned that there are a few communities on your instance that seem to be designed to stir up drama with other communities for whatever reason. I think that is one of the reasons it was being floated. In the end, it didn’t seem to be the right choice for the community.

    I’m not sure that it’s easy to pin down harassment to particular users, as people can have multiple accounts across multiple instances. I think this is one of the reasons defederating wasn’t necessarily the right choice for this instance.

    I can certainly understand why it would be hurtful to come across people wanting to defederate. I believe with this instance the hope is for things to be discussed publicly as much as possible and for decisions to be made with the community. That can mean having tough discussions about how things impact us and it can get messy. I am very confused about how this earns us the label of tankie, but I will never understand everything ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
