Dear Admins of the Lemmy.world instance I am asking that you please consider defederating from the rammy.site instance as soon as possible as the admin is no where to be found and it has been taken over by right wing posters posting hateful messages. There are also other people posting large amounts of spam and creating empty communities. What was once a small hobby run general purpose instance has been turned over and made into a festering right wing hate filled breeding ground by the people from exploding-heads. The only recoarse left it seems is to defederate to prevent them from spreading hate to other instances.

PS. I already sent this message to multiple admins here, sorry about that I just felt it was urgent to make sure the message was sent before these people cause more damage.

Well, I'm late to the party, but it seems like rammy.site is failing to load for me.

If it's as bad as it sounds from the quotes I read, then it should definitely be defederated from. Any instance peddling hate and/or propoganda needs to be defederated immediately. They need to be denied audiences.

Edit: Well following the rammy.site link thru lemmy.world does not load at all, but it loads just fine if I search rammy.site on a browser. Could that mean that lemmy.world admins have defederated already, and haven't announced it yet? Here's hoping.

You're right. Someone linked a screenshot of the federation list.

I still forget a lot of the features available on lemmy...

They defederated hexbear preemptively. Why not this one ? This needs to happen.

Well, I dont think lemmy.world should be linked with instances that have totally different rules. Maybe small difference in rules is fine, but this extreme stuff will make entire lemmy.world less appealing
