Fediverse

That instance list is built completely automatically by a crawler, no one approves instances before they are listed. In this case it was removed as soon as we became aware of it. Next time please make a pull request like that one, its much more effective than complaining.

The instances page at join-lemmy is completely automated

This definitely needs to get pushed to the two main devs for lemmy as they control that website

Holy fuck.

I was a teacher for a private company at 17. I taught kids aged 6-14. A couple of my students I had occasional intrusive sexual thoughts about.

She was 8, which was way below my AoA of 12+, and she certainly hadn’t started puberty. But she was attractive. She made me nervous, I thought about her everyday, I envisioned what we’d do together–she was just like any crush to me, only instead of an adult, she was a kid. But does that really make a difference? She was a person. What should age have to do with love? Eventually shit happened.

They even call it the pediverse.

Lemmy really really needs instance blocking. Yes I know some clients have it but Lemmy itself needs a way to enable users to fully block another instance and all of its communities.

It's a disgusting, terrible instance. Back when I added them to our blocklist and fediseer they even had pedobear on display as if they were proud. They have a MAP community and Pedo memes.

The link posted by OP has our findings in it with a few of their posts on an archive site for those who don't want to go to the instance directly: (https://gui.fediseer.com/instances/detail/rqd2.net)

Yeah, no. I'm defeding with them.

Why must people do things like this it makes us all look bad

The pedophile community is the largest local community and that should be all you need to know.

EDIT: Relevant discussion over on reddit

I initially thought this was an LGBT witch hunt. But unfortunately I have been shown that there actually is promotion of pedophilia there.

Sorry but what's a MAP?

people need to be on top of this shit to ban it with extreme prejudice

I hate people like that, they make the rest of us look terrible

This is not acceptable in any way, shape, or form

Jesus mother of fuck

How long has it been there? Months?

The lemmy.ml devs were ok with Nazi instances being on join-lemmy "because people can just choose to join a different instance if they want" (or words to that effect) so it'll be interesting to see how far they take that line of reasoning.
