It's an overall issue within the fediverse. Thankfully there are tools and ideas being discussed on how to best address it.
It's a known issue with lemmy right now. https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/2072
I actually helped discover the issue and triage it with others, so hopefully there will be a fix for it soon.
Thank you! This is so awesome
Seem it might've gotten lost during the migration, we're figuring it out.
That’s how Lemmy does so by default. I wish I was kidding 🙃
Thank you and absolutely! Our general ethos for LemmyNSFW is that with the implosion of reddit, it's inevitable that some adults are going to seek out adult content so making sure its done right is quite important. For the purpose of the growth of the lemmyverse and keeping the community safe, we see it as an opportunity to not only learn from reddits biggest mistakes and make a new community that focuses consent and keeps minors out, but also actually attempts to foster a safe and controlled environment that other federated NSFW communities haven't really been able to do so as they have almost always turned into a free for all. It's an uphill battle with the limits of lemmy, but we are working through it and doing the best we can and building tools for ourselves. There isn't a blueprint for this, we're learning as volunteers as time goes on.
When it comes to defederation, we truly don't have issues with instances that defederate with us. There's no hard feelings, no grudge, not even any ounce of negativity. We respect and honor that choice, and with the limits that lemmy has (especially right now) we understand why instances make that choice. And for the overall benefit and safety of the lemmyverse there needs to be instances that don't federate with us too. Especially in line with our focus on consent. Ideally, there will be native ways in lemmy to block our instance, restrict our content in all for instances, and the implementations of more detailed content warnings.
I will say that I personally use a different instance for SFW stuff, and I can say that I absolutely adore the people at aussie.zone, sopuli.xyz & feddit.de. The admins and communities at each of those instances are filled to the brim with absolute sweethearts and I have nothing but love and kindness towards them. It makes me sad when people feel there is some weird beef we have with the instances that have us defederated (especially those!), and I hope those instances know we don't, we fully understand why they do, and we will never push them to refederate with us unless they inquire to us explicitly about thinking about doing so.
Same as above, if we were simply defederated there would have been no hard feelings, it was everything else that was an issue.
Please do!!! It would be so helpful
I was under the assumption that was what they were asking, I could be wrong though.
Currently, none that are safely moderated. There is one that we have defederated from, but I would caution against going there.
We will, hopefully soon. Our backend team is working right now to figure out the best way to do that.
American law is honestly just deeply convoluted and annoying. Having to take into account the 50 mini countries in a trench coat hyper-specific legalities is so fun!
Sorry, been swamped with things. Will approve accounts now :P
