We recently received a message from a concerned Rammy user regarding their instance not having an active admin team.

We have made attempts to contact the Rammy admins, which other instance admins have tried as well, to determine their current status. Due to their admins being absent and their unmoderated content growing in numbers, we will defederate from Rammy. If and when this situation changes, we will be happy to reevaluate our approach. It should be noted that any instances that have abandoned admin teams will be defederated.

    Unfortunate but very much necessary to stop the spread of their hatred. This is why it’s important to have a team of admins, so that it’s less likely that the person running the server doesn’t just disappear one day and they can continue maintaining it even if the main person isn’t there. Maybe if you’re an individual instance you can’t afford to hire a team of people, but you could get a group of friends together and have all of you work together to run it, think of it like a group passion project it’s important to make sure that something like this doesn’t end up abandoned otherwise it can cause problems for others if people start abusing it.

    I know a lot of people are in doubt about how bad it is, but I went there and I looked at it and it’s honestly terrible worse than the Donald on Reddit (if anyone can remember that) we don’t want to rehost that kind of stuff on this server, we don’t want to be associated with those kinds of people, it’s not worth it. They can still have their free speech on their platform, just not on our server and we don’t have to put up with it.

      Yes they can keep their hate on their own instances but they are not welcome in our house. Keep reporting these extremists wether they are right of left wing - because it’s a never-ending fight.
