@sibrosan The server rules on your server explicitly prohibit transphobia.
So why do you see enforcing the rules by not federating with another server that’s got a long history of transphobia as “bias”?

IMO the rules should be enforced when they get broken, not preemptively due to an expectation they would.
No Meta server exists that uses ActivityPub, so if they set up one, it won’t have a “long history of transphobia”.
And when that server turns out to not behave, it can be defederated quickly enough.
@sibrosan Thanks for the explanation!
