Them defederating piracy communities was the nail in the coffin for me, just deleted account.

First was some weird shit about a porn community with petite girls and how it invites pedophiles. Even though that one doesn't affect me, it's still like uhhhhh, petite women exist......

Now this piracy shit. It's like they're pushing their morals and "concerns" onto every member without consent. Reddit still has piracy and petite subreddits, which paints somewhat of a picture of how non issue they are.

Hopefully shitjustworks is fast, stable, and doesn't pull that shit.

To be fair, the petite girl controversy thing was the lemmy.blahaj.zone admin being a weird tyrant, not lemmy.world. Unless they did the same thing at LW lol. Thus far shitjustworks has been reliable and unobtrusive for me.

Does shitjustworks have any defederation policy?

[–] ruckblack@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago

The way it's been working so far is that people will bring up instances they have concerns about in the agora community. There's community discussion, and then a vote. So far I think just exploding-heads was defederated from after a discussion and vote.

Hopefully shitjustworks is stable

Double irony both from their name and this hope considering they've been down for a while now.

There was also the pre-emptive de-federating from another instance because the admin didn't agree with that instance's admins political ideologies, even though on that instance the admin was telling people to obey other instance rules and not brigade etc.

What is the petite community you say?

Adorableporn. The girl in question wasn't even naked if the post people said sparked it was the one I saw. Braces = cp apparently.

There's even a fauxbait.
