One of the instance that is promoted on join-lemmy.org is burggit.moe that is defined as “NSFW & Loli/Shota/Cub friendly”. Loli is legally considered as paedophilia in europe and the US, so even if it’s legal in the country that host the instance, I would suggest to not promote it as an instance to join
This is what the rules of that instance say:
- No illegal content under Netherlands law
- No content involving junior idols, child models, or anyone under the age of 18 in revealing clothing, questionable poses, or questionable situations
I also dont see any pedophelia on the frontpage. If you do, try contacting the admin to remove it. Of course you are free to block it from your own instance, but its a really flimsy reason to delist it from joinlemmy.
There should be easy way to reach admin to admin :)
Isn’t loli using child models though? I thought that was the whole point of loli/shota/whatever the fuck else they want to call it?
It’s just young child models but they are x hundred years old, no?
I think morally and optically speaking, anything that endorses Loli or Shota is disgusting. On the basis of them saying they are “friendly” to that type of content, they should be delisted, regardless of if you see it as soon as you login or not.
No, I’m not going to look on the frontpage if they really publish the content they say they publish
Of course you don’t see any problems. You don’t give a damn about moderating, you only care about militant rights of folks to say whatever the hell they want to say about anything regardless of the impact it has on anyone else.
It’s not that person’s job to moderate that instance. You seem confused. Block it.
Yeah wow that was way further up the list than I thought
I don’t think it’s true that such things are illegal in the US at least, but yes, this one should be delisted.
If I recall correctly, as long as you can tell it’s not real it’s legal. But it’s still gross. It’ll be the first server that my instance is defederating.
On Mastodon this kind of heads up are called #FediBlock and it’s useful to decide to block problematic instances together
good catch! Maybe we have enough content for a community around lemmy moderation? FediBlock like, something like that.
The devs certainly won’t. The main instance doesn’t get moderated… regrettably Lemmy doesn’t have the dev and community support that the other federated tools do.
You can check the mod logs, they are public and there’s a link to them at the bottom of every page. I have certainly seen the mods of lemmy.ml giving out temp and permabans for rule-breaking behavior. I have even seen them hand out lengthy (4-5 day temp bans) to users who seem to post content that is much more closely aligned to the lemmy.ml admins world views than the other party in the conversation leading to the ban. I think the accusations you’re making here are pretty off base.

It isn’t though. Legally there’s nothing to be done about it. Defederation and blocking it from the main list is certainly advisable, though.
I may be mistaken for the USA, but it is in many EU countries
This just came up on my feed and i blocked the community, lemmy instances should defederate from them
You are “wondering”? Your instance should block the instance immediately. It’s in fact a good test. The best setting would be to federate with no one by default.
