I'm aware they have moderation issues, I'm not aware of the extent of them or how badly it will affect us here. Why, is their Nazi problem worse then I realize?

Pretty much all the servers we are blocking are either sanctioning content we don't allow here (eg Cheese Pizza) or people who will harass our users (racists), so if that's the kind of traffic they bring, yeah, they will get banned like any other big Nazi server. I think the only nuance of the policy here is that we're giving them a chance to fuck it up themselves.

That is a good point though, maybe I should go look further into just how bad things are there: if they're just going to flood our feed with bullshit, you're right, there's no reason trying...

I think this comes down to what makes this place so much better than a for-profit network: we are actually users, so we have an actual incentive to make it a good place to be.
