The mods there have decided to allow underage looking content, skirting close to CP. Unless we want such disgusting stuff on our feed, I think we should defederate from that instance.

Pinging @ernest as well.

and now the federation drama begins...

There is nothing dramatic about it. Defederating from problematic instances is nothing new for federated platforms.

Access to content should not be difficulted by puritan views. If people enjoy gore and create an instance about gore in movies showing very explicit (yet fictional) images of dismemberments and stuff in movies it should be banned too because is morally questionable?

If you can't distinguish between fiction and reality it should be a you problem not the whole instance you are inhabiting problem

What do you think about this? (sorry the article is in Spanish, but there is no English article)

It's a painting exposed in an important museum

You know what you can do if you want to see that content? Subscribe to that instance or an instance that is federated with it. Easy

Easy

Not easy when instances start defederating stuff, forcing users to create new accounts on other instances
