I was wondering if there was a community where admins of different instances got together and chat in general about decisions for how they run their instances.
Sort of like an informal U.N. for Lemmy admins.
I suspect something like this already exists to some extent on discord or matrix servers. Which probably works quite well.
It does
Yes, most admins are in a matrix chat.
Are there sanctions on Hexbear at the moment, lol.

What’s Lemm.ee? Switzerland?

Estonia, but big
bigger instances would have a veto power and smaller instances might be forced to take the same action as them if they make a collective decision, even if they don’t want to do it personally.
Things are already like that somewhat, as far as I can see.
Smaller instances for the most part need to have registration signups or capcha as a minimum, otherwise they risk swift defederation from larger instances when spammers arrive
As lemmy’s mod tools improve I see things moving away from this approach though
That’s why I included the words informal, but I get your point I hope it doesn’t become too bureaucratic and is just a place for admins to build trust and communication with each other so federation/defederation is a more conscious decision.
