Going by https://lemmy.sdf.org/instances, it seems that not yet. I haven’t run into any issues though, and have never seen a post from or noticed anyone from exploding heads, thankfully.
Isn’t this just a good indicator that there might not be a need to defederate? If they aren’t causing problems for your users than it doesn’t seem right to defed preemptively.
Interesting. I wonder if the main community they spam in are just banned and not the instance. I got so much spam from one user who posted like several things an hour all day with no engagement on any posts when I would sort by new before we defederated. It was weird.
If no one on that instance subscribed to a community, doesn’t it not show up in your all feed? Maybe just no one on that instance subscribes to any explodingheads communities.
Does SDF not defederate anyone?

Yeah I was going to ask do you see a bunch of spam from them in the new feed? The admin guy posts so much stuff with 0 engagement it’s weird.
Just found it interesting the SDF seems like the most federated instance on here https://federation-checker.vercel.app/ weird.
From this link it seems that almost no one is blocking exploding heads… and I just found out that my instance isn’t even blocking truth social 😨
I don’t think Pravda(truth) is federated is it?
I know Gab is not federated, idk about Truth Social but maybe you’re right and that’s why isn’t even listed with the other blocked instances

I haven’t seen any yet.
Interesting, thanks.
I’m also on SDF. Can confirm that while we’re still federated with exploding-heads, I never see their content in my feeds. Ever.

I think this is the key. There’s no need to defederate if nobody’s subscribing to their content in the first place on your instance.
Seeing a flood of content you dislike on your instance from another instance means there’s at least one person on your instance subscribing to it.
