Even on public instances, I don't understand why people think defederating hurts the fediverse. Just join a different instance, how hard can it be?
I'm on 3 different instances right now
I don't get it either. Defederation is a tool just like banning or spam prevention. If it's unused it's pointless to have.
But you don't ban everyone for a single offense just like to don't defederate lightly. If you do then people will move elsewhere and the problem resolves itself
Right, which is why I put the line after that in
My point is I don't think it's necessarily a bad SOP lol
I don't disagree. I think if it's an issue the users have the power to resolve it
