Due to a (now former) admin of the instance anarchist.nexus calling for a member of our team, as well as anyone else they call a zionist, to be murdered, the instance has been defederated.

We're currently discussing how we will proceed with this situation and whether it will affect lemmy.dbzer0.com, which is mostly run by the same admin team, notably excluding the person who used to be on the anarchist.nexus admin team.

We will share further updates once we have them.

Update 2026-04-22 23:25 UTC: anarchist.nexus federation has been reactivated.

We are still discussing this matter, but there is currently no point in keeping anarchist.nexus defederated while lemmy.dbzer0.com is federated.

That UK law is really something.

Do you think there is any chance it will get reviewed at some point?

[-] Skavau@piefed.social 6 points 3 weeks ago

Not really.

At the same time, lemmy.zip is being overcautious because I doubt Ofcom know what lemmy is.

[-] Blaze@lazysoci.al 5 points 3 weeks ago

Better safe than sorry. We've seen enough instances going down lately, being cautious makes sense.

[-] Skavau@piefed.social 3 points 3 weeks ago

I don't think that's been the reason why any instance has gone down though.

No idea - it was introduced by the less overtly fascistic of the two parties alternating in government, so... D:

Though they are both losing ground to upcoming parties which are more radical than the main ones, so in case the Greens (a party in the left-liberal quadrant of the compass) or the Lib Dems (right-liberals) gets to be part of a coalition government in the next elections, they might be able to push through a repeal.

Labour has always been authoritarian and were cheering along OSA all the way when the Conservatives introduced it - Nadine Dorries heavily involved before her bizarre defection to Reform. Something they don't get called out for enough.
