You may have heard about an incident from the other day where a user uploaded some baaaaaad images. I’m worried that the responsibility for hosting that stuff could circle back to the nice people running instances, as federated sites are connected that way.
I’m just a garden guy. Here because I wanted to show off pics of my garden with like minded green thumbs. I don’t need to get caught up in any trouble. The other thing is that I have this instance which is mostly just this one community !gardening. We often have only 1 or 0 active users in a day even though many people subscribe and participate from other instances. It’s lovely to have you all come and visit but hosting an instance for myself doesn’t grow corn 🌽.
Special shout out to our most active users Thrawn, Spacebar, editedit, thegiantkorean, David from Space. I have really enjoyed connecting with y’all through my favorite hobby. I will see you on one of the other garden communities I’m sure.
I've seen other news about the bad stuff posted and I'm sorry to hear that you have to shut down, but it's totally understandable and wouldn't want anyone to be impacted by this in any way. I enjoyed participating here.
