This is an opportunity for any users, server admins, or interested third parties to ask anything they'd like to @nutomic@lemmy.ml and I about Lemmy. This includes its development and future, as well as wider issues relevant to the social media landscape today.

Note: This will be the thread tmrw, so you can use this thread to ask and vote on questions beforehand.

There are plenty of other instance lists across the internet. So its not even a real solution for your theoretical problem.

I don't think the people raising this as a concern are trying to solve the problem of bigots on the internet; they are just asking for you to change the advertising you provide to remove the bigots from a place of visibility.

And then we should block lemmygrad, lemmy.world, hexbear and hundreds of other instances? Thats not gonna happen. If you want to block instances, do that on the beehaw side.

I'm not here to proselytize about what we decide to block or not. I'm explaining what the person above is requesting - not a block, but a conscious decision about what shows up on the join-lemmy list.

I'm new to the fediverse, and even I can tell you're missing the point.
