see it really is tumblr 2011, remove us from the federation captain, we're going pirates
@jovan i literally can't understand half of what this says
i didn't even know other people could see us im laughign so hard
@jovan you're probably gonna be defederated by all of the block-heavy instances within an hour or so, so you probably don't have to worry about it too much tbh

that said people are upset with you mostly because it's convention on the fediverse (what the network as a whole is called) to use the CW feature if you're gonna be joking/talking about heavy shit, lets people curate their experience better
@pea thats completely fair but we've been using this site for maybe 2 hours and dont know all the features or rules, didnt even know it was all connected that way was intended to be private i dont see many people on my server using the CW feature for text posts
@jovan yeah I get you, there have been a couple other big instances like that, where most of the users aren't aware of all that stuff from the beginning and it sorta floods out, (switter, sex worker instance is a big one, they moved over because Twitter started clamping down on them)

in the end usually it settles down within a reasonable amount of time, you're probably gonna get a lot of reports, etc, though

if you'd like, depending on your hosting, it might actually be possible to disconnect from the rest of the fediverse but personally speaking I like to see it grow in pretty much any way, so my personal preference would be to see y'all stick around
@jovan if you wanna though I bet I could find you someone who knows how that all works with Mastodon (I think it actually needs to be patched tbh) and you could probably get that sorted out
