Due to a (now former) admin of the instance anarchist.nexus calling for a member of our team, as well as anyone else they call a zionist, to be murdered, the instance has been defederated.

We're currently discussing how we will proceed with this situation and whether it will affect lemmy.dbzer0.com, which is mostly run by the same admin team, notably excluding the person who used to be on the anarchist.nexus admin team.

We will share further updates once we have them.


Update 2026-04-22 23:25 UTC: anarchist.nexus federation has been reactivated.

We are still discussing this matter, but there is currently no point in keeping anarchist.nexus defederated while lemmy.dbzer0.com is federated.

Anyone know which instances don't defederate anyone? I can handle blocking assholes, Nazis and spammers myself, and I do not like censorship being handled for me. I do not know if my current instance does that.

Feddit.uk, lazysoci.al, scribe.disroot.org and Lemmy.today

Your current instance and lemmy.zip are both fairly censorship light. Personally, I'm pro-censorship, but I hope you find an instance you like.

PieFed.zip and Lemmy.zip are large and great recommend instances famous for how few other instances are blocked, and Lemmy.today I believe blocks none at all.

Edit: your current instance has a medium-length blocklist. You can read about individual decisions in the https://sh.itjust.works/c/main community, e.g. Can we consider degenerating from maga.place and hilariouschaos.com? and Is there a way to block hexbear. Note that the decision to defederate from behaw.org is due to the latter defederating from sh.itjust.works, so to avoid confusion among users as to why posts can only be read one-way.

sh.itholefor.nazis was actually defederated first by hexbear due to the lack of moderation of homophobic slurs and large concentration of nazis/reactionaries On sh.itsfulla.chuds, and the plan going forward

Beehaw has respectably defederated from nazi SJW.

to be fair if you dont like nazis you are pretty pro-censorship too, going by your logic.

I will censor Nazis from my own sight sometimes if I want to, yeah. They can be very tiresome. But I don't like anyone else making those choices for me. Harder to punch what you can't see.

Edit: and of course this current brouhaha with some admins wanting to censor tankies, Zionists, anti-Zionists, MLs, etc, makes it all worse. That's what's ruining Reddit right now, just with different politics.

I share beliefs with lots of different political movements. I see it as important to discuss these things. It's how we get to the truth.
