De-federate from instances with loli (sh.itjust.works)

Can we get a consensus on whether our community should de-federate with servers that host loli? I personally think we should block them, and if that ends up not being the consensus here then I'll probably sign up on another server. I hope we can all agree to set that boundary though because I like it here and it seems otherwise pretty cool.

Users viewing illegal content is one thing but instance owners hosting it is also an issue.

I might be wrong about how content mirroring on Lemmy works but I'd imagine instance owners would clearly be liable for "publishing" any illegal content hosted on their instance.

There's not really a way out of this using tags. And the moderation log probably needs to be purged from the actually offending content as well. And in the specific case of CP (which can include loli depending on the jurisdiction) having the content in a database might also be illegal.

So that's a whole headache...

No content from other instances are hosted here. When you see an image from a community on another instance, what you're seeing is an embedded image linked from the other instance.

True, the hosting side of it all is one other big thing. I have to leave that to smarter minds than myself :O
