Brooo, we're so getting defederated.
Like, fr, I vote to ban it and this is why. An instance that allows gore and scat is almost definitely only going to be federated with other such instances. That stuff seriously needs its own instance, just for the safety of every other, more standard community. If scat shows in the all feed of another instance just one time, this instance will be instantly dead.
Yeah, to some of us it does. I'd prefer not to have to swap between a bunch of identical accounts just to be able to go from checking the subs I mod to looking at tech news.
If you're fine with being defederated, why not just start up your own instance and take on that risk yourself? No reason to have the rest of us get defederated just because you're okay with it.
To be explicit about it: this is how you lose the obscenity test and tank the entire community.
I think having their own instance would be better for everyone, and that goes for more than just the scat people
