I have been an active user of different Lemmy.ml communities for a long time but for personal reasons I want to migrate from Dbzer0 to Yiffit, unfortunately to my surprise Lemmy.ml stopped federating with Yiffit a few months ago and honestly it saddens me because there are communities like c/linux, c/privacy, c/firefox, c/fdroid that are extremely useful and I love to participate in them.

Is there any chance that Yiffit will be federated again? And why was it defederated from Lemmy.ml?

The admin of Yiffit is an incredibly nice person and I’m sure he will want to come to collaborate to be able to federate again with Lemmy.ml. As a user I find it a little unfair not to be able to participate in these communities from this instance but I understand and respect that each instance has its own policies and decisions.

    Sounds like your issue is people made serious communities on an instance that’s mostly fetish porn…

    Other instances can’t federate with the sfw stuff and still block the NSFW stuff. Especially since there’s a lot of spillover and communities that aren’t technically porn are still NSFW.

    Why be mad at the other instances whose users don’t want to deal with an insane amount of fetish porn and shitty porn adjacent meme subs when they browse Lemmy by /all?

    If you want those serious discussions and don’t mind and the furry stuff, make an account there.

      At what point did I say that I was upset with the decisions made by other instances? I openly said that I respect and agree with the decisions made by the administrators of the instances.

      Personally I don’t use /all much, I just see the posts of the communities to which I am subscribed and that’s all, and I think that’s a good point that I hadn’t taken into account and thanks for pointing it out, but that’s why it especially affects me not to have access to those communities in lemmy.ml, because they have a huge flow of posts that I lose by not being able to access those communities.

        So what the point?

        You just want your fetish pron to be more easily accessible for you even though most people don’t want to be exposed to it?

        Cool, I thought you wanted an explanation, but you just wanted to complain.

        Have fun with that

          Someone piss in your Cheerios this morning?

          OP is very respectful and understanding of the answers they’ve received and you’re being an asshole presumably because you have an issue with furries.

          I hate politics as well as many people, and just like them, I am constantly exposed to them on Lemmy and especially via /all, I can just block those communities, can’t I? Or I can simply not even look for them in the first place because I don’t like them and not hate the people who do enjoy them.

            Speaking of blocking…

            Have fun pretending to be an animal tho, different strokes for different folks and all.
