This feels like a gross overreaction to the situation. Sure, I don't love the fact that TD has a tiny presence here, but I fail to see how that should be cause to defed a large instance. Especially when that community just popped up recently, only came to anyone's attention in the last day or so, and (to my knowledge) hasn't caused any real trouble other than the Agora mod vote thread getting a bit spicy.

I'm sure it's something we'll need to address internally, but it's just one item on that list. And for now, it seems like a low priority item.

Yes! I was thinking very similar to this. It's a big overreaction. It's a community of one person or very few. If you aren't on this instance then just don't subscribe or block it. If you are involved in this instance then figure out how to deal with it along with the mods. It seems very quick to jump to defederation of an entire instance for one person.

Sure they might shield their users from one community but they are also blocking them from access to all the quality content from here.
