It isn't pedantry as there aren't discussions of illegal content occurring either. If I talk about torrents (not illegal) I'm not breaking the law or discussing anything illegal. Neither is a discussion about Qbittorrent or Jellyfin. Neither is a discussion about the hardware needed to seed 1000 different Linux ISOs. Don't let your ignorance of the topic blind you.

Can you point to the illegality of this post? https://beehaw.org/post/7156567

Do you agree that !gaming@beehaw.org should also be defederated now for posting illegal content?

Also, I am already using a different instance if that wasn't obvious enough.
