The instance seems to be mostly right wing trolls. I know defederating is unpopular but I don’t think much is to be lost in this case and it can save the mods some headaches.

    I’m sorry.

    I now recognize that the thread I commented on was full of people that were trolling you just as much as they were trolling me.

    But it’s not my fault either, I commented on your server once and got fucking dogpiled by a bunch of creeps. I didn’t even make this post about defederation, I just responded and gave my honest experience and opinions.

    I acknowledge I was mistaken in some of the things I said about your server. But you never came out and explained who you guys are and why you’re here. I still have no idea why you have 1.2k users who are mostly inactive, or when or why the server was created.

    I feel bad and I hope you reconsider, but I haven’t treated you poorly at all, so don’t go around saying I drove you off the platform. You’re welcome to create an account here and promote openness and inclusiveness through interconnectivity.

      That is the only post with those people on it. You specifically found where other’s are trolling exploding-heads and then trying to get exploding-heads defederated. You are being manipulated.
