Hilarious Chaos, whether intended or not, took in a bunch of users from another deeply conservative based instance that has largely been defederated from, so it was more or less a duplicate of an already disliked instance. As such, HC is also defederated against by a lot of other big instances.

It may have something to do with the 8 censures it has received. https://gui.fediseer.com/instances/detail/hilariouschaos.com

Good resource. I wonder why slrpnk gave no rationale on that page. I would think solar punks would be pro-transparency.

(edit) Do you know how to grab that data? I have been grabbing a fediseer dataset using this link https://fediseer.com/api/v1/all_instances, but the censure_reasons field is null for hilariouschaos.com.

Hmm, I don't remember us putting that into Fediseer. Either that was a long time ago, or Fediseer also pulls in defederations automatically?

The reason hilariouschaos.com is defederated is because it became a Nazi bar and their admins seemed totally ok with that.

It does not. You can edit your existing censures at any point though to clarify them further.

We announced the defederation from Hilariouschaos and outlined our reasons for it in last year's November monthly meta discussion.
