    Nay

    While I do believe that defederation should be reserved for very serious cases, I don’t think it needs to go as far as “egregiously illegal” before we consider it.

    And to Lemmygrad specifically, they’re the perfect example of why. They may not be the worst filth on the internet, but their reputation as a hive of tankies is casting a bad light on the entirety of Lemmy. Anybody connected to them is going to appear guilty by association, so defederation is a symbolic gesture as much as anything else.
