A bit over a month ago, a user posted in !main@sh.itjust.works to propose defederating from maga.place. That post was followed by a discussion in !agora@sh.itjust.works a week ago, which seems to have gained some traction. In response, we're going to hold a vote on the matter. Voting will be open for one week, through Friday, November 7.

The Agora discussion post is here:
https://sh.itjust.works/post/48420886

Only sh.itjust.works accounts created prior to today (October 31) may cast a vote.

Vote by commenting either yes/aye/oui or nay/no/non.

Any further discussion should happen in the Agora post linked above.

Nay

I don't like them, would prefer not to see them, but they exist and I'm not of the mind that we should prevent all our users from knowing they exist.

Defederating for me seems like the equivalent of sticking our heads in the sand or plugging our ears and closing our eyes. If a particular user doesn't want to see it then they should block it personally.
