It is imperative that we defederate from rammy.site (rammy.site)

Recently it has come to my attention that the instance where my account is located rammy.site has been taken over by right wing bigots from the site exploding-heads they have created many hateful communities and have started posting transphobic content and climate denial. There's also quite a bit of community spam on here.

I very strongly advocate that the admins of this instance defederate from rammy.site as soon as humanly possible to stop the spread of their toxic shit to other instances.

I haven't seen anything from that instance, and I am not going to go there and see for myself because I don't seek out sources of outrage. Defederation seems like a drastic first step.

It's not drastic considering the circumstances, the instance is unmoderated their admin isn't available, that's as good a reason as any to defederate them. The instance also doesn't have a blocklist, it doesn't block any instances it's also on outdated software and being unmoderated that is a recipe for disaster.

Fair enough.
