Instance blocked
Instance blocked
So, I've just done something that I said I'd be reluctant to do in future without community consultation and blocked an instance.
I don't think anyone will have any issues with it, but I figured I'd let everyone know since this executive decision affects all aussie.zone users.
Hate content
The intolerant are not owed tolerance. Fuck em.

6 0 ReplyDid you visit the instance URL? That was the decider for me.
Edit: ok, they look legit now. At 6am, it was an anti-trans meme.
6 0 ReplyBetter to be overly cautious and restore later. You did the right thing.
7 0 ReplyI totally forgot aussie.zone admins get these reports. When I report a post or comment from another instance do admins from both instances receive them? I'll be a bit reluctant to report stuff from other instances if it means aussie.zone admins have to deal with the extra work. Not that I've reported anything much else lately.

I think you might have only blocked it for yourself, because I can still access their communities and users, e.g. https://aussie.zone/c/woodcrafters@r.nf
They also seem to be a legit instance, just a very small one
