in 2021 I was real high strung and wouldn't take shit from anybody. i've calmed down a lot since then, relaxed and learned a lot from not only fedi elders but my own peers .

i made a decision this morning to remove i *think?* 11 defederated servers and attempted to restore their currently actively active users.

there are a few servers left, some will never be removed for reasons (CSAM, for example) and others that we will leave it up to the community to decide whether or not they want to see and interact with those users or not.

in 12 minutes (7 ET / 11 UTC) we will open a poll for poa.st users only that will include ONE INSTANCE ONLY - KF.CC -- and how the defederation should be handled:

option 1: full defederation, all users reactivated
option 2: partial defefeteration,above + users with activity within 24 hours
option 3: whitelist: users deemed by poast community to be of value to the community (i.e. crunklord, etc)
option 4: everything stays as it is, an MRF is written to allow the posts of those who the community deems important (again crunk, josh, whoeever else is important this month on kfcc)

it will be a 24 hour poll and whatever the results will stand.
i know KFcc users for the most part dont like me, some may hate me but I want to try to build this bridge. I told josh privately last summer that I wanted to mend bridges, so let's hope we can.

following this public post will be a private, instance only poll where poast users will be able to voice their opinion. when the results are final, there will be a third post and hopefully a resolution.

love you guys

last fall josh moon came to his poast account @josh and extended his hand to me in a time of legal need (we ended up with the literal saul bateman, acts like saul looks like bateman) so we didnt go with his lawyer but the fact that he reached out to me in a time of need I told him that I'd like to bury the hatchet, mend fences, within the confines of the law, so I am willing to do that. but I am leaving it up to my users to make the decision because you guys pay for this site, I only do when you guys refuse to
