De-federate from instances with loli (sh.itjust.works)

Can we get a consensus on whether our community should de-federate with servers that host loli? I personally think we should block them, and if that ends up not being the consensus here then I'll probably sign up on another server. I hope we can all agree to set that boundary though because I like it here and it seems otherwise pretty cool.

No need to defederate. I just went and blocked loli and related communities that popped up. I will never see them again.

So, my vote is NAY.

    Federation is still young.

    It may be easy to individually block communities now but what about in a few months/years when there are potentially 10x more communities across 10x more instances?

    How intimidating would it be for a new user to have to go through 100+ communities and block them all individually instead of just blocking 5-10 instances?

    Would you say the same about a gore community?

    Personally, I'm fine with a NSFW tag, and would hope that NSFW instances respect other instances enough to properly tag stuff.

    Any instance with a gore community? Nah, screw that noise. Add it to the block list.

    I would block gore communities on a personal level, but there's no need to do so on a server level unless they're doing something worth defederating for, like any of the following:

    • posting cp
    • using their server to DoS/DDoS others
    • dox-ing people
    • allowing their users to harass others AND refusing to punish such behavior
    • same as above except for ban evasion

    I'd like to have a force-nsfw option for communities that don't enforce proper usage of the NSFW tag, but for now I'd have to block them most likely.
