In case anyone is wondering, it’s rqd2.
The definition of paraphilia is “a condition characterized by abnormal sexual desires, typically involving extreme or dangerous activities.”, which can inclde pedophilia.
It has recieved 4 censures from fediseer due to the content contained on that instance
Not a good look for Lemmy to be promoting any instance like that.
Update: A pull request was sent to remove the sus instance. It should no longer show up soon
I don’t have a link, but the lemmy creators (and maintainers of join-lemmy) answered this in a AMA about a month ago. They said they’d prefer the horrible people concentrate in their own instances so we can block them easily rather than have them in our instances. The join lemmy list does not serve as an endorsement, but a catalog of all available instances.
Saying it’s not an endorsement is playing semantic games. Join-lemmy.org is a site that promotes Lemmy, and having this instance there is encouraging new users to hop onboard an instance that encourages people to discuss how best to rape children.
Then they need to stop stonewalling and add user controllable instance blocking. I know that some clients have it but they’ve been rejecting calls to add it to the main lemmy codebase for a long time.
I am pretty sure I remember reading in the latest changelog that they just added it? At least on the backend they did. Probably didn’t work out the frontend features for it.
I think it’s important to add that the answer in that AMA referred to exploding heads (or maybe a different right-wing instance but something like that) and not this one. I’m sure the Lemmy devs would care a lot more about removing links to a pedo instance than a political one
Neither burggit nor comfysnug are shown on the instances page.
I’m not sure why. Maybe should ask them.
