They haven't calmed down, they're just defederated from most major instances when you add up all the instances they defederated from and all the instances that defederated from them.

When did I say they calmed down? They just got blocked by everyone who cares to. Instance blocking is the tits.

I didn't say you said they did. My point is that it means they're one sign up away from bothering everyone else again, they would just need to join another instance that's federated with the majority.
