Damn that sucks. While I’m glad such an instance existed, I have to wonder if their ideological opposition to defederation was a factor here. I’ve usually argued against defederation in all but the most extreme cases but I could see how not doing so would increase the burden on admins considerably.
Sure, I didn’t mean it was impossible or anything, just could see how it might lead to more abuse since you’ll inevitably end up mediating between instances that hate each other and sometimes just are downright hateful to everyone.

Lemmy.today also has policy against defederation, and it’s still happily chugging along.
