This guy has been spamming garbage everywhere. sh.itjust.works is a terrible instance with no moderation and this quality of post is pretty normal from users there. I don't know why they haven't been defederated en masse when other less spammy/disruptive instances that actually contribute to discussions have been.

You’re accusing thousands of good, active members over a few bad ones. Also defederation should not be thrown around lightly.

I didn't say "defederate them"; I said that I didn't know why other instances were defederated when that instance is worse. I intentionally didn't say defederation is bad or good because that's irrelevant.

Also, different people have different views on defederation and its relation to the Fediverse. In my experience, curating away from content harmful to your users is important to creating healthy communities.

I apologize for accusing you of wanting to defederate. I must have misread.
