I've been dabbling in ASSTR, though haven't found anything I've really liked yet. Mostly what I'm finding are stories that are good for a bit, and then veer into "not my fetish" territory. It's an enormous site though, so I'm sure I'll find something I'll like eventually.

The anti-harassment policy probably helps there. Also, exploding-heads having defederated us. The loli protects, apparently.

Might be better not to set that particular train in motion.

The image is still accessible on their server through that link, so it looks like purging the post doesn't get rid of the image.

 

After losing their lemmy.fmhy.ml domain name, they're back at lemmy.fmhy.net. @Arisusanchez commented a few days about it in my old thread about them, but I missed it until just now.

 

FMHY is down for now, though hopefully not permanently. They were the only large instance that hadn't defederated us.

From my very brief look at this one and my only passing familiarity with stonetoss, they seem fairly similar

Just took a look at the guy's other comics, out of curiosity. Pretty fuckin yikes. Holocaust denial and the like.

Wait, so we've been furries this whole time?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

 

Another one down. Looks like their admin isn't actively hostile to us, they're just in a hostile jurisdiction:

I’m sure this will come as a disappointment to many of you as you have joined this instance specifically because we do not block or defederate with anybody. Unfortunately my hand is forced on this occasion.

As many of you know this server is hosted in Ireland. It has been brought to my attention that under Irish law:

Virtual child pornography is illegal in Ireland per the Child Trafficking and Pornography Act of 1998 which includes “any visual representation”.[Irish Statute Book] The country has strict laws when it comes to child abuse material, even if it doesn’t contain any “real children”.

As you can understand this requires me to defederate and remove the offending material from my server. There are newer admin tools in the works which will allow me to block specific communities instead of whole servers. Once this is in place I will refederate with burggit and block the individual offending communities.

This will also apply to other servers with offending content but as far as I’m aware burggit is the only one for the moment.

I still maintain my ideal of not defederating as much as possible but sometimes its out of my hands.

Thanks to everyone for helping create this vibrant community and for supporting. I am dedicated to make VLemmy the best it can be.

I read the thread, and my guess is that they're actually doing this to troll the admins.
