These are tough calls to make. On the one hand I applaud the step taken to protect the community hosted by this instance, on the other I also find that simply cuting ties and conversation only furthers the divide.
Sure we should not have to defend the validity of our existence, and also realise that most hate leaves little place for heathy discussions. But in avoiding their echo chambers I find we quiet ours too, we renounce our visibility for our comfort and theirs.
I guess I wish there were other ways to warn users about potentially triggering instances rather than outright defederating, but I do understand your main motives.
I’ve moded mine, it was fairly easy and works amazing! Havent had any issues with image distortion. Most kits the screen is the same ration so shouldnt be an issue
I understand your concerns, but since it is an official EU platform and we have the GDPR, I don’t think there’s much cause for concern. Even if it uses your countries platform to verify your identity, I don’t think they would be able to see which petition was signed just that you verified your identity on the platform as a whole.
In any case hope you stay safe! Yeah I’m intending on sharing it once a month till then!
