Weird racist posts from dank memes keeps showing up in my feed. Are we doing anything to prevent becoming Voat 2.0? We’re really concerned about Threads and that’s a big unknown. Weird racists already destroyed the last Reddit escape are we concerned about that? Like are we going to make a policy of defederating hate groups?
I’m pretty confident this community is using fake accounts since every post starts at ~20 and then gets down voted after it’s been forced into a bunch of people’s feed.
If not that’s fine I guess but does anyone have a suggestion for somewhere that will?
I like the setup where each server administrator comes up with their own rules about what they want to see on they server, then people can join one with rules they like.
But I also think there needs to be some server-level agreement/consortium/federation/etc that makes (or better, implements from decisions sourced from the community) wider decisions about what “Lemmy” as a whole will allow. That way server administrators are free to make decisions like whether they want to allow NSFW or not, but in order to stay federated with the rest of “Lemmy” they need to abide by some basic rules like “no hate groups” and “prevent spam”, and risk being defederated if they don’t.
Ithink what youre saying is somone should begin compiling a list of servers that aren’t terrible. I wonder if there could be a way to set up a list of “certified servers,” then set up your instace to automatically federate/defederate based on the lest. it would probably be too time consuming to do manually, but you could allow instance owners to register, then review and remove as necessary. it would give a central spot to report bad instances at least.
