  • I disagree that the admin of an instance doesn’t have the right to moderate it how they wish. By joining the server you agree to let that admin control what content you see on your instance. That’s how instances work. It’s still on you to agree/disagree with the admin and how they run the server. That’s why other servers exist and you have the complete right to associate with who you wish, or even run your own instance and run it how you like.

    I do not agree with the people wanting to control other servers by trying to force defederating from threads. Independent admins running their own server is what the Fediverse is built upon.


  • I have confidence the mastodon instance I’m on, Fosstodon, as well as this instance of kbin, would choose the defederation at this point…as it’s the point of meta becoming a walled garden. Fosstodon is all about free and open…so it goes against their very nature. They refused the invite to join the NDA bound discussion because that goes against their principles. Right now I feel like Ernest and the team running kbin.social feel very much the same way. If I turn out to be wrong about either…well that’s the point I chose to find another instance. Step 3 is my own defederation point. The moment you start closing off your walled garden is the moment you lose a lot of the Fediverse.
