Apparently thanks in part to my article about Eugen caving to a Nazi's misinformation campaign there is an effort to defederate from matodon.social (not something im promoting directly myself)... Several of his users are getting scared and starting to question if they should stay.I may not want M.S defederated, but maybe Eugen should not cave to Nazis then...

@freemo "defederate from Mastodon.social?" Is that an action on Qoto.org's part or the Mastodon instance community as a whole shunning (essentially blocking) them? I am painfully, awkwardly new to this scene. Words mean things but I'm not clear the effect.

@Romaq That is something the community is doing. I have not asked nor supported the idea of defederating from M.S

@Romaq There's been ripples in the wider Mastodon community for several days about mastodon.social's moderation, and people have been actively moving away from it. I hadn't seen talk about defederation, but it makes sense that people consider it if it's problems are being exposed one by one. @freemo

@digital_carver Many threads mention me trying to get them defederated and link my article.. so people seem to have gotten that impression... But as I said that isnt my intent. My intent is to expose the truth, what consequences that has is on Eugen not me.@Romaq

@freemo I don't believe the answer to, "this instance is being unfairly targeted and ostracized" is "let's ostracize the instance controlled by the guy playing along and BTW he maintains the code we all run on."If the code is really open, forking the code to break control over the entry list would be a better option, but that only presumes a better option than "we trust that one guy has his crap together" exists. A "democratic" committee solution simply invites Truth Social to take it all over. It's hell getting people to join as it is without some complex scheme for a server list to on-ramp people to Mastodon.Sometimes all options suck.

@freemo @Gargron TL;DR: your server was removed from joinmastodon.org so you decided to discredit Eugen and his instances. You must be fun to be around.

@singular Did you even read the article.. 1) I have not spoken a word against his instance. In fact when asked I specifically said I do not support his instance being attacked. See here:https://qoto.org/@freemo/1094037417166914852) My article about him (linked below) only stated the facts, and I try to be objective. I show screenshots of all the toots, link to them, and include Eugen's response (which effectively confirms the content of the article to be true).If the truth discredits Eugen, so be it, thats on him not on me.https://jeffreyfreeman.me/eugen-rochko-ceo-of-mastodon-found-to-support-nazis-agenda/@Gargron

@singular How did I "miss" that.. that link literally agrees again with what I said. I quote the link:" there is an effort to defederate from matodon.social (not something im promoting directly myself)"yes, my approach to the truth is to tell it, and even the link you just posted verifies what I said is true...@Gargron

@freemoThat's some serious handbagging you're engaging in. Honest question: don't you have a life, work, family, to busy yourself with? Looks to me like you really need to take a breather from this hobby of yours.Also, your reaction comes across as a bit over dramatic.For a start: there are no actual “nazis” left, for the simple reason that the #NSDAP no longer exists (and the world has moved on a bit). There is hate, intolerance, fascism and other condemnable attitudes and ideologies, but there are no “nazis”. That's just stupid American terminology meaning "someone I don't like".To continue with: I've no idea who that snow guy is out why do you care about him, but from what you've posted, seems like a run of the mill #troll. You've shown examples of classic shitposting. Offensive and inappropriate, yes. But he hasn't called for violence or actual discrimination, has he? Just block him and move on. If he continues to troll, lawyer up and send a cease and desist. If he persists, sue. Provided that you're based in a semi civilised place (or #France) these kinds of things do get looked into.But honestly, as a user I just liberally block trolls and troll instances and that's it. I really don't expect you as an admin to do it unless, e.g., they're causing a #DoS or some other technical reason.If other people want to block your instance… their loss. 🤷 That's how the system works.Now go and get some fresh air. 🙂🌻

@101101000 Nazi is defined these days mostly by those who self proclaim to be Nazis...He uses the Nazi symbols explicitly to show support.He calls for mass genocideHe promotes Hitler propaganda.Yes he is a Nazi.My links do not show his post, yes he has called for violence countless times.

@freemoHe's not a “nazi”, mate. From what you've posted he's probably a kid with no friends posting from his bedroom.Which, honestly, is the same way you're coming across.I get it that running a web forum is stressing, what with all the idiots (myself included) that get free access to it and cause headaches. But there are other priorities in life.

@101101000 He has clearly stated he is a Nazi, explicitly.Yes he is a Nazi||Usually I agree with you a racist is not a Nazi.. this person explicitly claims to support Nazism so yes, he is a Nazi.
