If so, was it polled somewhere?

      Yeah, garbage post. I expect we’ll see discussion/vote for defederation soon, though. I’d like to hear from TheDude as his stance made a lot more sense when we were defederating from exploding-heads.

      But more seriously, this wasn’t a vote for us to have. We hadn’t actually defederated from them in the first place. Their instance is one of the few set to whitelist only. Instead of federating with everyone by default and defederating by adding URLs to a blacklist, they exclusively select instances to federate with by their admins manually adding them to their allow list.

      So it was their instance that decided to add us to their list of instances they’ll interact with. No change was made at sh.itjust.works without local user consultation. If you have concerns with this there is a recent discussion post at the [email protected]
