Hello
I am happy on this instance and 2 other federated instances that take good care of the culture by not federating with some other instances.
Yet sometimes I wonder what the “firehose of trash” would be like if I would see really everything and am wondering if there is a “catch all” Instance that is not limiting anything at all?
I would like to take a peek down the abyss for once.
I’m on an instance that defederated from only 3 other ones: voyager.lemmy.ml, ds9.lemmy.ml and enterprise.lemmy.ml - just checked now. I honestly dont see a firehose of trash, tankie invasion or anythig of the sort. I do aggressively block communities I have zero interest in, so it might still be happening there, but I personay don’t see it at all - anecdotal evidence, I know, but that’s been my experience.
Were they filled with spam? Or does your instance just really hate Star Trek lol
No idea, honestly - not a trekkie, so I never cared enough to ask :)
Those are test servers for Lemmy.ml (for new versions, I think), by the Lemmy devs. I don’t think they’re banned for ideological reasons, and you won’t miss out on much by blocking them.
Ya fuck star trek
