it's not exactly the entire regions, but a large chunk of prefixes from asian regions.

we're currently working on some infrastructure changes that will allow more granular blocking for feddit.org, separating it from the blocking used for other fediverse foundation services, as currently all fediverse foundation services are sharing the same blocklist.

I was just pointing out logical consequences of the state at the time, that was not an argument towards defederation. Sure, other mods can communicate if they're not banned from another instance, but as a mod you probably wouldn't be ban evading to get your mod communication through to someone, if you message them and it gets ignored due to never being seen by the intended recipient you'll just ban that person and move on.

you can't summarize more complex topics in too few words without losing important meaning. a tldr is still a tldr if it's one paragraph when the original was 5.

the title of the post is literally "Europe@feddit.org supports Zionism" and claims that the comment removal was

for de-tangling the conflation of antisemitism and anti-zionism

i'm counting at least 12 accounts registered within the last week that are participating in this. some of them just after the previous post in !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com, others newly registered within the last day.

the problem is that your tldr does not take any of the explanation into account, while the previous posts were actively accusing the moderators and admins of being zionists and not understanding the reason for removal was instead the trivialization of national socialism.

don't feed the trolls, please

Also, there’s a fair bit of comment removal going on in there, and the contents are not being shown in the modlog, so it’s a bit hard to tell what’s being removed and how it’s affecting the discussion.

this is unfortunately how lemmy currently works when it comes to instance bans. we would have to manually remove every single comment of those accounts separately for them to show up in modlog. if you look at the ages of the accounts and the names being used it should already be clear that those are all just troll accounts. if you've run across "anti yank" accounts in the past, these seem to be operated by the same person, with their only purpose being to troll by trying to stir up more shit on current drama (they seem to always be aware of the latest drama on lemmy) and frequently call americans and german genociders, not even being consistent in their own arguments.

you can see some of the original contents here:

these are all sockpuppet accounts with the same agenda of making lemmy a less desirable place.

Defederating the instance would still prevent feddit.org users to interact with the community

of course, that's exactly the problem we pointed out in the original point. i haven't heard anything about quokk.au other than their news community, but we can't tolerate an instance ran by an admin that defames us by calling us nazis and zionists. considering that the community is moderated by a person banned from feddit.org this is something that must be expected to be leading to moderation issues regardless, as for example them posting announcements in the community, warning feddit.org users in comments, or trying to message them in private about their behavior is not going to work, so from their perspective it'll just look like feddit.org users don't care about their mod communications.

the instance is small user wise (local users), not the community.

Deceptichum is banned for reasons not related to the accusations, which won't be solved by discussion. the admin account of the instance, @Marsupial@quokk.au, is not currently banned from feddit.org. they have also received a message from us last night asking to withdraw the censure within 24 hours.
