I figured since their admin has asked them to stop participating over here it may be worthwhile to get a new discussion going that is primarily blahaj. I'm almost certain they'll still be upvoting so keep that in mind as that may skew things. Worthwhile to check in from instances that have already defederated them. The previous thread definitely left a bad taste in my mouth but what do y'all think?

The current top comment is:

Every instance that has talked shit and got dogpiled should be thanking us for breathing some life into their dead and boring ass websites.

It’s not a bat signal, likely the thread popped up into their “all” feed and a bunch see it at once.

Some of the stuff is because they were already a very established community with their own culture, who has only just recently federated with others. They are bringing their culture, which is full of memes and shitposting, out to where a good portion of normal Lemmy users don’t even know how to post a picture, and it is a lot all at once. It does seem that their admins want to have relatively good citizens, and it seems like most of what Blahaj really cares about is compatible (they are possibly even more extreme with caring about it). Being disruptive in political threads does not seem like a good reason to defederate an instance.

In this case, it was very much a "bat signal". They posted about it and linked straight to my post in their "dunk on a lib" community

That’s the issue I raised with their admin. The admin deleted the post in question and made changes to stop it happening again.

Yep, they did. Which is why I'm pushing to remain federated. They took action and addressed the issue. But there very much was an issue before they did
