A bit over a month ago, a user posted in !main@sh.itjust.works to propose defederating from maga.place. That post was followed by a discussion in !agora@sh.itjust.works a week ago, which seems to have gained some traction. In response, we’re going to hold a vote on the matter. Voting will be open for one week, through Friday, November 7.

The Agora discussion post is here:
https://sh.itjust.works/post/48420886

Only sh.itjust.works accounts created prior to today (October 31) may cast a vote.

Vote by commenting either yes/aye/oui or nay/no/non.

Any further discussion should happen in the Agora post linked above.

    Fair point, let me adjust a bit: there’s a difference between hating someone for what he says or does, and hating someone for what they are.

    As for lies in the open, I disagree: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brandolini’s_law The amount of energy it takes to debunk a lie is an order of magnitude bigger than it takes to post it…

      You could easily just lean on the hitchens razor. What is posted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.
