Lemmy

... Stop fearmongering.

The_Donald, isn't on lemmy. It's here: https://patriots.win/

After reddit booted them, they built their own reddit. I am pretty sure, they aren't interested in moving here, as that would ruin their echo-chamber.

Defederation is not the solution to your problem. sh.itjust.works is one of the larger lemmy instances, hosting lots of users, and lots of content.

The best solution for you, if you don't want to see https://sh.itjust.works/c/thedonald is to block the community. (Or the ONE USER who posts stuff in it)

You cannot defederate every instance, that hosts a community which you do not agree with or like.

(Also- unrelated- c/thedonald isn't going places.... after it breaks the fediverse record of negative downvotes, it will prob disappear soon......)

I don't give a shit what they do.

I can block them, just like every other community I don't want in my timeline.

Hopefully at some point, if we see entire servers being a problem and not just the one community on that server,

we can have the ability to block the server in its entirety, even our server doesn't decide to de-fed with them.

Ideally, kbin will allow us to decide for ourselves what servers/communities to block instead of deciding for us.

Maybe you should switch to beehaw. I think they align more with your interests

I'm not worried yet

Currently blocking everyone that downvotes this post, wish me luck!

FYI you can block a community. And I'm not a fan of echo-chambers. Whether you like Donald or not, I believe that as long as the content is not illegal, users should just block that community if they don't wish to see or amplify their posts. You're merely reinforcing their belief that they're being "persecuted" on the internet.
