Community for the Feddit UK instance.
A place to log issues, and for the admins to communicate with everyone.

founded 2 years ago
MODERATORS
 

Tbh i was looking forward to engaging in some debate with them.

did they break any actual rules or is it just because they're MAGA?

Edit: Before you angrily comment below (as so many have done so far) please keep in mind that this is a feddit.uk meta community and i am specifically asking the question to feddit.uk mods/admins and inviting discussion from feddit.uk users.

if you are not a feddit.uk user then this entire conversation DOES NOT AFFECT YOU. ~~I have yet to hear from anyone who actually is a feddit.uk user~~ Admin response here

I am not expecting every server to do things my way, i am trying to foment a discussion with other members of my instance about a top level moderation decision and presenting my viewpoint alongside that. As a somewhat regular contributor to the running costs of this instance i would like to see at least some community discussion before a decision is taken to take the drastic step of de-federation for idealistic reasons

Instead i have been dogpiled by emotional reactions and downvotes from people from other instances who have exactly zero stake in the argument since internal feddit.uk moderation decisions do not affect other instances. it's frankly astounding that i managed to get an admin response with how buried this post got

You asked why a server would defederate, you got answers, and then you got very upset that they weren't the answers you wanted to hear.
