So with the way Lemmy currently works, could someone create a community, write some hate speech in the community description and that description stays up forever?
E: Apologies if it would have been more appropriate to ask this question in c/lemmy_support
Additionally, there is a plan to implement a purge feature for particularly egregious posts, but as long as these communities are not allowed to spread their roots here, there shouldn’t be much of an issue. Seeing fascists and bigots getting whacked in the mod log doesn’t bother me much at all.
There’s nothing stopping them from setting up their own instances (like Gab did with Mastodon), but they will be ostracized from the fediverse.
That’s exactly what it means.

I’m just gonna guess here, but I’m pretty sure there are manual steps an instance admin can take to nerf that stuff in the database
