But on a well maintained instance they get banned pretty fast. Like, less than an hour if they’re vote botting.
That’s why the problem is smaller instances that aren’t well maintained, either because admins don’t care or aren’t able.
On those since the home instance doesn’t act, the burden falls on the admins of every other instance to eventually ban each account.
Like,batelnback a second.
Think of it as admin who is putting their money and equipment up for this…
That is why I’m shocked they don’t defed already, it’s the only solution and the longer they wait the more trolls it attracts. Because they’ll assume they’ll get weeks/months out of it again.
You stamp trolls out quick or shit gets out of hand.
If you’re smart, you can get around quick bans via timezones. And defedding small instances or not allowing single user instances is completely contrary to the idea of the fediverse.
Right now all but one instance federates by default, if you’re saying going in the complete opposite direction and only one federating by default would be a bad plan…
Yes, obviously it would be
Like almost everything else, it’s not binary.
Some instances who don’t care can leave the door open.
There’s this weird insistence that “fediverse” all needs connected and agree on moderation, it doesn’t. That’s the entire point of it, that everyone has a wide selection of instances to choose from that do different things.
Not lashing them all together so that “admin” just means “power mod” and anytime there’s a disagreement they get to have a slap fight over it.
Even if one person wants multiple flavors, alts are very easy to make. If you young or old enough to need an app for this, loads of them automate it
Oregon Trail in the middle can always handle multiple websites tho with their own passwords and logins. It’s weird that’s something to brag about now though. Thank James Cameron I guess.
That’s just the nature of the internet. On the contrary, I can say that someone can just sign up for normal instances en masse and spread hate speech
They can…

What?
It’s just not federating automatically day 1…
How can they defederate if they’re not already federated?
They can’t defedate anymore…
All I’m saying, is delayed initial federation, I hope this was simple enough.
This instance looks like a month old though. Some people for example, self host wordpress blogs and have ActivityPub on them.
Cool…
