Makes me kinda wish that when defederating you could select a one word label for why. Like a fixed list with several options like pedo, spam, harassment, abandoned, etc and a default of other. Make it a bit easier with a big list like this to say, oh 1000 of these 1400 all selected "racism" when defederating so it's probably very racist and I should also defederate. But if it's a lot of "other" or inconsistent reasons maybe I should spend a bit of time digging.

You're looking for this: https://gui.fediseer.com/instances/censured. Us instance admin can also endorse other instances.

[–] scrubbles@poptalk.scrubbles.tech 24 points 11 months ago

As an instance owner, thank you. Going to use this a lot

db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com is one cool dude. Their fingerprints are all over Lemmy in an obviously much needed manner. I'm glad I joined their instance.

[–] ijeff@lemdro.id 6 points 11 months ago

Agreed! I'm really appreciative of folks putting this kind of work into Lemmy.

Sooooo much CSAM and lolicon on there. Disgusting. One question tho, what does "map" mean in this context?

[–] Fraylor@lemm.ee 43 points 11 months ago (1 children)

"Minor attracted person" the whitewashed version of the word pedophile.

They've defederated from a bunch for no reason including lemmyunchained.net which is what I use. But I still see posts, why is that?

A small instance where members vote on decisions regarding the instance. Haven't really had to vote on anything though cause it's so small and not a lot to vote on. But it's nice it's there for if we do need it.

[–] slazer2au@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

Defederation is a one way thing. I don't recall which way it happens though.

What does “altfedi” mean? And what content is illegal in Germany and Czechia?

[–] zed@lemm.ee 8 points 11 months ago

Maybe nazi bullshit? Alt as in alt-right and nazi bullshit being illegal in Germany 🤷‍♂️

[–] drathvedro@lemm.ee 9 points 11 months ago (2 children)

What's up with all the pedo instances? Why are they creating instances in an open web? Are they dumb or something? It sounds to me that just registering the domain names of some of those could be considered a crime, nevermind openly inviting and hosting CSAM.

[–] crsu@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

Honeypots and also to discourage people from engaging to corral people into big tech where surveillance is #1

[–] witchdoctor@lemmy.basedcount.com 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

It's not a crime as long as they don't post the actual content, I guess

[–] drathvedro@lemm.ee 3 points 11 months ago

I am not a lawyer, but I imagine there's no way I could register, or get away with if I do register something like "molester daycare" or "pedo toothbrush for kids"... Oh wait, apparently the last one is actually a thing. Well then I guess it's not, but man that's an unfortunate brand name

Here’s the beginning of the Wikipedia article:

Kiwi Farms, formerly known as CWCki Forums, is a web forum that facilitates the discussion and harassment of online figures and communities. Their targets are often subject to organized group trolling and stalking, as well as doxxing and real-life harassment.

So, it’s an assholefarm.

Although the name originated with one particular site, it looks like the name now applies to any site that serves a similar purpose. Bleah.

oh so it can be used as a weapon?

[–] kd45@lemm.ee 3 points 11 months ago

Wouldn’t that kind of defeat the purpose of the fediverse because you would need some kind of centralized system to keep track of all instance’s reputations?

mugicha.club is anbandoned right?
