Universal Lemmings was setup as I was unhappy with the defederation policy’s of other instances that I was on. Other than servers obviously set up for bots/spam we aim to not defederate. We will even federate with bot instances if the community wishes. Though I find that incredibly unlikely.
This instance is still very new so you might need to search out your favorite communities again. Im still working on finishing up backend optimizations but once completed I will begin making more formal announcememts and guides on how to get around.
If you have any questions or concern’s feel free to comment, post in the support community or even DM me.
Of course it may not be completely possible to live up to the ideal 100% but as long as i make a best effort i think its still if value to the community.
In regards to meta as we aim to federate with all we will also federate with meta. When it comes to content that crosses the line for me I will personally block it but not on an instance level. And when illegal content is fetched it will be removed and purged form the server so im not worried on that front.
I guess we will see how it goes. Mabye i will be forced one way or another to defederate, but that will only come after all other possibilities are exhausted. I beileve it is possible. Especially with better mod tools. But who knows mabye im wrong. We will find out.
It is certainly possible! But it might get tricky! Good luck!
I know it’s been a while, and you probably forgot about this message even, but what you just wrote is the exact reason why I’m here. I couldn’t have said it any better myself - bravo!
It’s been a while coming, but I’m finally moving all of my activity over to your instance. You seem to have a very good take on the entire federation process, and I’m really happy to read stuff like “I will personally block it but not on an instance level.”
There are shitty people everywhere. Fortunately it’s quite easy just to not engage with them.
Thank you once again for setting up unilem. I hope it will survive for many years to come.
