I was there, I saw the thread. @TheDude, did you? It was pretty strongly in favour. Do we really need to keep waiting around to see if an instance administrated by a guy who wants to declare “cis” a slur is going to turn out okay?

Lemmy world has a sub dedicated to conservative hate. If you are trying to defederate against hate, make a post about that otherwise just block the problematic subs and move on.
Problem here is not you want to achieve, but wider consequences of it.
We are all just discussing options and learning what is the best course of action. Mistakes will be made but I hope will be fixed too.
Lemmy just had big growth and no one was ready for it, pushing for drastic measures is fair, but we will challenge that idea.
Additionally try to also speak about other problems it will cause and how to prevent it.
