PieFedBeware of lemmychan.org: it’s exactly what you’d expect.

This month-old instance has three communities. One is for testing and the other two are anti-trans.

arctanthropeoh, lemmychan like a 4chan colony on lemmy. not lemmychan like Japanese girls on lemmy
MelodiousFunkNo no… it’s Lemmy, from Motörhead, as a Japanese schoolgirl.
ProdigalFrogWhen i check my server and it already blocks that shit 🥰
Might I ask how does one find their server’s blocklist?
At the bottom of every instance is a row of links, the ‘Instances’ link will show you which instances your server is federated with, and at the top of that page is a tab for the server’s block list.

Thanks, just defederated us
Looks like it’s still federated on piefed.ca. Don’t forget about us!
piefed.ca is set to just follow lemmy.ca, not sure how often it refreshes….
Daily.
Hey if you’re active, do you mind replying to all your false accusations you’re spewing all over the Fediverse?
Please don’t do that that. Hounding people in irrelevant threads just comes off as harassment and makes you look worse than them.
No, they won’t. Lies spread faster than truth.

Rimu might not be seeing anything you’ve posted for the last few hours, might be deletion?
(Personally, I say keep doing it. Rimu is just gonna remove you from the DB, nothing else will happen. Rimu is a shitheel who supports fascists, who cares what they think?)
I’m perpetually shocked that there’s zero vetting for federation…
Like, I get needing to give a new instance a chance, but it feels like shared between all the admins that federate, keeping an eye on them wouldn’t be hard for a probationary period.
But like..
Admins really saw a blank instance with “chan” being the only other word besides “lemmy” and thought shit was gonna cool?
Is federation really automated to the point no human makes a decision? If so, that’s an obvious flaw and trolls will just keep spinning up instances to troll from. If one person has to pay it all the time, it’s a hassle. If ~100 people are pitching in or taking turns and they don’t care what the domain is because they know it’s temporary…
Have admins even considered how to prepare for that?
Some instances operate on an allowlist rather than just blindly being open, but honestly the number of problem instances is much lower than you might expect. Most are just wide open. Spinning up an instance will cost you some time and a domain, so it’s not exactly a zero cost effort.
Honestly I have no idea what “chan” has to do with this, I only know it as the japanese honorific. Edit: Oh, chan like 4chan? That one didn’t occur to me.
“Chan boards” are a thing. 4chan wasn’t even the first.
It all started with trains.
Chan is short for channel
Instances can either be blocklisted or allowlisted. A given instance must choose one method or the other, and almost all instances choose the former. Hexbear is the only one I know that chose the later. They vet instances individually before allowing them. Keep in mind that the fediverse is not just Lemmy. It would be a lot of work to vet each new fediverse instance that comes along.
Thanks!
So it’s just a setting they can flip at any time. When (not if) instance spam becomes an issue, there’s already a way to address it.
This could (hopefully would) be mitigated by blocklist admins monitoring one of the resources that quantify instance activity after like x months. If everything checks out, let em in with a reminder in y months to circle back.
Semi related:
I’ve always wanted to see a mod list that breaks down “local”. Like, you look at .worlds modlist from the main page, and it’s every mod action from every federate instance.
It makes it hard for users to see what their own admins are up, especially with how frequent these discussions is, I feel that option would increase transparency for how an instance moderates so users can make informed decisions where to set up roots.
Yeah that’d be nice. Modlog has always left much to be desired. Although the core concept is great, it’s not fleshed out enough to be as useful as it should be. Sometimes it can even be weaponized by rogue mods to slander certain users. Because when you ban someone, that mod action is permanent and you get to put whatever text you want as the ban reason.
It definitely needs work but I can understand other things taking priority, considering most users will never interact with the modlog anyway.
That was a question I asked our admins. When a new instance spins up is there any kind of probationary or quarantine period? Nope, not really. 😔
Apparently it’s an option. I’m assuming that means it can be changed later, I can’t imagine it being locked in.
Hi, trans lady here, fuck that guy and fuck his instance.
Thanks for being cool.
We defederated from 2 weeks ago after a heads up from @Deceptichum@quokk.au. What a horrible instance it is.
Marked for a while now https://gui.fediseer.com/instances/detail/lemmychan.org
You can Follow our censures against bigotry and csam on fediseer to ensure you don’t stay unprotected until someone brings it up
Er I didn’t know what to expect and trans-related is the last thing I would have thought of. I had been thinking of using that name for an instance or community with per-thread anonymity, mostly to make it harder to build user profiles by scraping.
Click to see if you are currently federated !fucktroons@lemmychan.org
maybe hide it in a spoiler so people can opt-in to seeing the hateful community name
Those are weird priorities…
