we are defederated from lemmit.online as the bots there was just far too much already but I’m curious about whether we should do the same for alien.top and or its sister instances (there’s a lot).

If you aren’t aware of what that is, it’s a site ran by another instance that mirrors reddit content over into ghost subs and mirrors the comments as well.

Personally? I’m not a fan. Like, at all. I understand the desire but I feel like its not only asking for Reddit to throw down with a legal fit but also feels just… annoying. We don’t need a critical mass of content, we need QUALITY content. More does not equal better.

    I’ve got less of a stake here since I’m a “guest”, but I’ve blocked both of those on my instance for the same reasons.

    Lemmy feels like a fresh start, and those are just bringing noise and old baggage.
