After reviewing a recent post by the administrator of sh.itjust.works and comments from the community, we’ve decided to revoke the defederation action.
We’re hoping that proactive moderation strategies and development to Lemmy’s moderation tools help us avoid the need to defederate from instances like sh.itjust.works in the future.
Original defederation info:
- Instance: sh.itjust.works
- Type: Defederation
- Affects: Pawb.Social (Lemmy) only
- Reason: We defederated from sh.itjust.works due repeated abuse from users and the open-registration policy permitting this.
Once moderation tools are developed to be able to handle this, is there a possibility that we federate with previously-defederated instances such as sh.itjust.works again?
We’re no longer defederating with them, but I wanted to make this post for transparency on why we originally did.
