Due to a (now former) admin of the instance anarchist.nexus calling for a member of our team, as well as anyone else they call a zionist, to be murdered, the instance has been defederated.
We’re currently discussing how we will proceed with this situation and whether it will affect lemmy.dbzer0.com, which is mostly run by the same admin team, notably excluding the person who used to be on the anarchist.nexus admin team.
We will share further updates once we have them.
Update 2026-04-22 23:25 UTC: anarchist.nexus federation has been reactivated.
We are still discussing this matter, but there is currently no point in keeping anarchist.nexus defederated while lemmy.dbzer0.com is federated.
Shit, I didn’t know the .world admin situation wad so bleak. Anyone with any sense should leave, because of the Zionism, but because it’s clearly not being well managed, in general.
Tbh, a balkanization of .World would be good for the Fediverse. Everyone jumped on it after the Reddit API exodus, it became too centralized ¯_(ツ)_/¯
And I played a part in that and will, forever, be apologetic for that.
When I left Startrek.website, I chose lemmy.world because I was friends with an admin of the instance at the time but I wasn’t really plugged into all that was going on on the fediverse. I’m also aware of the numbers that I helped drag into lemmy.world with the creation of Tenforward@lemmy.world
It’s also why I created !Risa@lemmy.dbzer0.com. To try and undo some of the damage. I asked Picard and co to move over but they were unwilling due to a concern of fragmenting the community. I respect their decision and not giving them flak for it but I really wish that they had joined me over here. Lemmy.world is going far beyond the pale with this petty behavior.
Yep. I’ll soldier on for now but I’ve been considering switching. I’ve had a comment to the tune of “not surprising given your instance” so now I have a lot more context on that.
