Defederation is a tool of last resort. Before taking that step as a community we should attempt to engage the admins to align them towards more acceptable behavior. Migrating communities away from instances with petty and abusive admins is always a good idea, and this absolutely qualifies.
Calling to defederate merely on the basis of political opinion might be premature. However, I suspect defederation will happen for legal reasons: they host users who openly support terrorist organizations designated as such by the EU.

But even seeing that content has a chilling effect on users who would contribute - even in unrelated communities.

.gitattributes can invoke Word on windows to diff versions, and there are plenty of open source scripts that can do it if you don't have a copy of Word (or Windows) lying around.
But Word is like shit for papers. Use LaTeX instead.
I am in this picture and I don't like it. I accept it because chances are I really did make a bad decision but I still don't like it.
Older C compilers would truncate a variable name if it was too long, so VeryLongGlobalConstantInsideALibraryInSeconds

.
Legend says that they used to do it after a single letter with Dennis declaring "26 variables ought to be enough for anyone".
