VLemmy Chat

I agree with you, now isn't it possible to rather discuss with the owner of such instances in order to make them destroy the hurting content / communities rather that completely defederating?

Now if these instance do not want to restrict their users, and since Lemmy is still in beta and lack features allowing a more fine tool for moderation (for example ability to "ban" a specific federated user or community rather than a whole instance), so perhaps indeed defederating temporarily until the federated instance accept to remove such content or a feature allow you to filter what comes from another instance.

As Lemmy is growing fast this kind of feature become more or less urgent (I come from beehaw which defederated from lemmy.world for similar reasons, inappropriate content which cannot be filtered out by any other way than defederating), I hope that some priorities will be given to development of those features by the maintainers of the project.
