The mod team was pretty evenly split on adding this instance to our allow-list or leaving it off.
The instance has a very active games community, however it also has the MeanwhileOnGrad community.
https://sh.itjust.works/communities has a full list of their communities.
Please do not emoji spam on other instances, consider linking to the Polite Politics Button instead.
We will wait for now and look at this again at the start of next month.
Lemmygrad is federated with them too though, and the meanwhileongrad comm is really just one guy who loves to talk about "tankies". If anything it would be a material source for the dunk tank.
Actually we're not, lemmygrad doesn't de federate from any real instance but shit just works did de federate from us, it probably only shows on their instance list and not ours though. Which makes that meanwhile on grad community doubly funny, the creator specifically chose to make it on a de federated instance so we can't talk to him, talk about a coward.
Huh okay, my mistake, thanks for the correction!

OK but 1. I don't think we need more material for the dunk tank, it's a fucking cornucopia right now and 2. this suggests a lot about their admins, because presumably at least some comrades must have protested and reported over there and were ignored
The example banner FOUCAULT provided in the thread here is both racist and unacceptable; and it wasn't just posted, it was approved by mods
