From what I’ve seen from the other users on blahaj, it’s not pretty split from the users on our instance. It’s supported. So defederating isn’t “drama”, it’s the intentional design of Lemmy
FediLore + Fedidrama
Chronicle the life and tale of the fediverse (+ matrix)
Largely a sublemmy about capturing drama, from fediverse spanning drama to just lemmy drama.
Includes lore like how a instance got it's name, how an instance got defederated, how an admin got doxxed, fedihistory etc
(New) This sub's intentions is to an archive/newspaper, as in preferably don't get into fights with each other or the ppl featured in the drama

the intentional design of Lemmy
Yeah, if you disagree with an instance's decisions, defederations, and so on... Choose another instance 🤷
Yeah I like the concept of chronicling all these happenings but declaring them to be dramatic circumstances is not only trying to be divisive for it's own sake, it's also just a bald-faced lie in most cases.
We shouldn't emulate reddit's toxic bullshit like SRD. Defederating happens, and it's not a big deal. Pretending like it is actively makes the platform worse.
The removed comment is made by a user from another instance. You seem to be very intent on creating the narrative that the users on that particular instance are split (and you are being very arrogant about it as shown in one of your other crossposts), when so far you have posted no evidence of that being true whatsoever.
And again, as others have commented, this is how federation works, if people disagree too much with the admins decisions they can freely move to another instance where those decisions no longer affect them.
I might join blahaj lemmy at some point then. The LemmyNSFW instance takes up an annoying amount of my All page, even though I've blocked many communities.
I was hoping for some non-porn NSFW stuff on that instance, like military combat footage, OSHA failures with terrible results, scenes of homicides and violent crime, strange nature photos (but stuff other than animal sex). It's not that I like gore in particular but I thought lemmynsfw would be a spot that could host that sort of content, which isn't appropriate to host on most other instances. But nope, it's pretty much all porn that's on there.
Apparently Kbin has options to block entire instances on the user side of things. Surprised that's not more common across the Lemmy instances.
you can change your settings to only show your subscriptions by default
Lol what does any of that wall of text have to do with "diversity."
There's not much drama here tbh; "admin defederates a somewhat controversial instance and some people agree and some people don't" is, as other commenters have said, very business as usual for the fediverse.
I do think it's natural in lemmy for people on other instances to have takes about defed calls because they may use communities on one of those two servers, or both, and be impacted as defederation splits the user bases. But it feels like most of the "drama" here is just free speech maximalist/libertarian trolling.
