Hi QOTO admin here, just wanted to make clear to anyone reading this that this post is obviously a lie.
we do moderate at QOTO, we have moderated and suspended users in the past (though most of our users are well behaved and there is no need). We also explicitly state that we are a moderated instance on our about page and explicitly list how and when we suspend users.
In short, at no point did we state that there is no moderation as long as it is legal, that has never been our policy
Not sure where you are getting your info from. QOTO has never been defederated by mastadon.social and remains federated.
I also said he **caved** to a nazai's agenda, not that he **supported** said agenda. This wording is important.
@freemo @guinan since qoto was recently de-federated by mastodon.social, this is resurfacing. I imagine it's exhausting dealing with this. 💔
Freemo's take that "Eugen ... found to support Nazi agenda" does not sound especially repentent.
