Both host content that are against our content policy and have had issues with users from those sites entering our community crossposting content that violates our content policy. We are discussing defederating other instances as well. There is discussion of lemmit.online being defederated because it pretty much exclusively scrapes reddit content and reposts it, and some content creators have expressed discomfort. If there's other instances that might be worth considering defederating from, just post and it'll be added to the current discussion.
and before anyone brings it up, lemmygrad defederated with us.
This isn't a dictatorship but I ask that you please behave in the comment section and at least try to understand why we are defederating.
It was a topic of discussion I wanted community input from as someone brought it up. We are leaning against defederation of it currently.
Hey, I'm new here but I think keeping lemmit federated will help me smooth over the transition from reddit. The majority of all content on Reddit and Lemmy (including this very instance) is already reposted from some other sources anyway and I don't really see a reason to treat automated reposting differently from manual.
