@dusnm My solution is **not** to convince anyone not to use defederation.. so your making a lot of assumptions about my intent here.
You might want to ask yourself, why do yo already find yourself disagreeing with me when I havent even made my proposal public yet?

@dusnm Unwanted by many.. by my judgement the majority in fact, at least based on how im seeing the conversation go.
I actually answer your questions and provide proof here. As you can see there is clear proof the only changes to our moderation policy were increased protections for the LGBTQ and the removal of the term "free speech".

Thank you for this update, I am planning to stay here on qoto,
If need be I can block people / servers who support or who are posting inappropriate content easy enough
What I have seen has NOT originated from Qoto, which makes it far easier to block the server it does originate on.
@JustYourBud well for what it is worth i am working on a solution... not sure if it will be adopted but if it is then it may solve this whole issue.
For those who arent aware of the full context here is the article that he is refering to:
https://jeffreyfreeman.me/eugen-rochko-ceo-of-mastodon-found-to-support-nazis-agenda/
It explains the drama and our stance
@JustYourBud Thanks, have a good day. I too enjoyed the conversation

The first black child ever allowed to attend a white school is only 68 years old now.
White parents pulled their children from school. White teachers refused to teach her.
Ruby Bridges now works as an activist & public speaker
This wasn’t a million years ago. /1

#helloworld! I like it when the #internet is for everyone and am trying out the #fediverse. Please bear with me; I was told I should use lots of #hashtags and am trying out the features.
I'm using #fedilab on Android. I already have a #noobquestion: can I add hashtags in Fedilab to my home feed? Right now I have some hashtags in the top bar but I have to view them all separately. #thx!
How many characters are too many? Can I just go on forever? I heard there was a limit but I still haven't reached it. Maybe it's 600 characters? 1000? I guess at some point the numbers will just go red and I will know what's up. Ok it wasn't 600. I'll just search online then because this is getting way out of hand. ...GREAT SCOTT I'm glad I did: it's 65,535 characters on my instance. #qoto 😂
@JustYourBud As I said a completely connected fediverse is NOT the goal, nor is it the issue... the issue is that lies and disinformation are being spread and used as fodder to defederate along with peer pressure.
@JustYourBud I have no problem at all if a person or admin wishes to block us if they are informed about our stance and understand it.
The issue is largely that this is a misinformation campaign by a Nazi fueling tensions... The vast majority of people speaking out against us are doing it out of context, or straight up lying.. THAT is my issue. If they shared our stance honestly and wanted to defederate, then have at it.
This post is a prime example of that. Look how he intentionally took quotes out of context and left out all the content around the conversation that would have actually allowed people to draw an informed decision of their own, rather than being manipulated into siding with him.
See this post I made that exposes the entire conversation and shows how the OP took things deliberately out of context:
@herid If someone else creates such a took I will be happy to let you know.
@herid I agree ti should be public info... Kiwifarms is a notoriously evil instance that has caused the suicide of several people... they are the sum of the universe.
@herrsaalfeld And to be fair censorship overreach isnt the issue.. defemation, lies, and the fediverse being manippulated by a nazi to pit LGBTQ allys against eachother is.
@herrsaalfeld Yea your interpritation is **Way** off. No its not about normalizing alt-right.. its about laughing at the idea of a alt-center as an absurd idea... Literally the point of the poil is to agree with your stance of pointing out the absurdity of such things as an alt-center.
Whether it is a "bad joke" to mock ideas like alt-center I leave up to you to decide, but it is clear that is the intent from the comment thread.
@herid Sadly no, it was written by kiwifarms so using, sharing, or endorsing the list in any way would be quite dangerous and very much frowned upon.
If you dont understand how it puts their lives at risk then you clearly didnt read the article I wrote that started all this. It illustrates, in some detail, exactly why that is the case.
Please read the explanation here. I cover quite clearly it puts their lives at risk and as I said has been known to save lives in the past. If you still have questions or objections after you read my side of it I will be more than happy to hear and discuss them:
https://jeffreyfreeman.me/eugen-rochko-ceo-of-mastodon-found-to-support-nazis-agenda/
@herid The one tool tthat would let you is very much frowned upon to endorse as it is written by Kiwifarms.
I can tell you that since I've seen the list it is very few large servers... its mostly limited to a bunch of single user servers and very small servers.
These servers are also known for being toxic so probably for the best. Most of them block the vast majorrity of the fediverse.
No I recognize the problem with the deplorable racism and sexism and anti-LGBTQ nonsense around the internet. I sympathize.
My policy has always been about protecting the lives of the LGBTQ community as a top priority and at their request. I have explained this multiple times. The safety of their lives trumps all, nothing more and nothing less.
Not one user from our server has ever shown to become radicalized... but we have saved lives... I call that a win and I wont change our policy, putting LGBTQ people at risk for lives simply because its unpopular, FULL STOP.
