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.

Kaplan cannot be removed from the admin team.

Every other major admin has stepped down in the past few months or taken massive steps back. Kaplan is effectively all that there is left. Thats why these actions were taken instantly and without any deliberation. Kaplan has no one to answer to anymore. @Ruud@lemmy.world just handed over total control of the instance. Whether or not Ruud wanted to remake reddit, he certainly has.

I mean, the admin onboarding was so onerous, I'm not surprised they can't find anyone. I remember interviews, like a day-job! I seem to remember multiple rounds of interviews, but I can't be sure anymore

Odd. I was just outright offered adminship on lemmy.world more than once.

Wouldโ€™ve be something to see you put Jordanlund in his place.

Oh yeah. I'd have dropkicked his ass out of the door a long time ago.

Probably would have immediately lost your admin and Jordanlund would be reinstated though
