TIL that clown couldn't even build a unique message board.
Btw, Truth Social is one of donors of the frontend Soapbox, which powers some Pleroma instances.
So is Gab, but they got defederated by pretty much the entire network so fast that they just gave up and disabled federation on their own end
Who are they and why are they shunned?
Alt-right propagandists, leaning towards the dumbest of their kind
I've never heard of any of these.
Awesome
Sees a bunch of "freeze speech" including "freespeechextremist"- lol the classic
Sees "freecumextremist"- oh no, the classic!
This should include a user count in each so we can see just how many pedos and nazis are being punted to their own little disgusting bubbles
Not aware of any of these, which is nice, but iddqd
caught my eye since that's a Doom reference! Overall I always thought the Doom community was pretty positive (at least going by Doomworld forums, and various Doom streamers, as I remember them). I thought surely it must be some misunderstanding! Oh maybe they didn't reply quickly enough to take down some drive-by hate speech, but that was it.
Anyway, holy shit, do not go to that lemmy instance. It's rotten to the core. I'm going to go take a shower and play through Episode 1 to cleanse myself now.
It's pretty standard 4chan-NEET fare, for anyone who is wondering. Racism, homophobia, xenophobia, trad wives, and quasi-pro-nazi shit.
Not worth your time to check out. Small community of sad nerds.
4chan wasn't like that before 2015. Well, except for the racism part. It was leftish/libertarian.
It's also the easiest "social media" platform to game. You don't have to make up a history for each user. You don't have to get upvoted. You don't even really need to make sense.
And to think, the Q shit started on these sites.

was a well known cheat code from the era, not exactly obscure if not contemporary.
The Doom fandom will always have the dark shadow of the Columbine High School deaths in its history. So shitty people using Doom to be shitty people isn't that far from the mark. Nothing will ever change that, sorry.
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.
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.
Agreed! I'm really appreciative of folks putting this kind of work into Lemmy.
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.
It's not a crime as long as they don't post the actual content, I guess
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
What does βaltfediβ mean? And what content is illegal in Germany and Czechia?
I wonder how many of these are defederated from each other too.
Is it all unity among the nazi-pedos or are they fighting amongst each other?
half are pedo servers π
And the rest are racist.
Took a look through some of the ones with tame names out of morbid curiosity; not that interesting tbh. Just hope I'm not on a watchlist now.
Where/how is this obtained?
I'm curious about seeing an entire list of defederated instances.

Be aware that it doesn't track when lemmy instances defederate from other fediverse instances correctly and hasn't for months, and that it's run someone from one of those 50 defederated instances.
What's with Pawoo.net? Figured it was something but it's all Japanese.
I think it's an NSFW instance of questionable legality (i.e. underage material that's prohibited in most countries except Japan).
I thought drawn child pornography was legal in more places but apparently its only about 8 counties. Bafflingly this isn't one of the things the EU has a united front on. Funnily there are a lot more countries that ban all pornography than there are countries that allow some porn but not fictional child porn.
Eientei? From touhou? Wonder what's in there. Also was expecting to see the pawoo competitor misskey.io since several japanese artists went there after Musk bought twitter.
I checked. Mostly a handful-of-people instance doing whatever on some Pleroma/Akkoma instance. Not much to see there and not much of what I could see there seemed to make much sense to me. Perhaps the defeds are mostly preventative but I cannot tell.
seal.cafe, cawfee.club and sleepy.cafe sure got welcoming names. Given the number of defederations, I doubt the contents are anything like the names.
Most of them were automatically defederated for not having adequate protection against bot signups, that got nothing to do with sketchy content.
As someone interested in both sides of security game theory, what exactly helps stop bots? I grew up playing RuneScape and hating bots before making r/Artisanvideos and hating them even more. I've always wondered if it's a matter of automatically detecting precise repetitive patterns or just specific giveaway signs.
If the bots are welcomed and they donβt have good enough moderation, this is just sketchy content with extra steps.
An online cafe dedicated to harvesting baby seal fur SEEMED like a good idea...
