This shit is getting out of hand. I wouldnt care if we defederated from everyone at this point. No-one is vetting their users and they let them upload images on 1sec old account.

Then complain to the owners of the instance, defederation should only be the last option. Besides, according to your link the owner already solved the problem, so even less reason to do so.
I would usually agree here, however if you’re the admin of an instance or a mod you’re going to quickly get tired of getting gore posts reported to you which originate from another instance.
A temporary defederation, as done by the admin in the link posted, IMO is the most effective solution right now, until Lemmy gets more mod tools to handle these edge cases in a more ideal way
The admin there re-federated with Blahaj after the issue was resolved 👍
Edit: to clarify, temporary defederation is only being mentioned because AFAIK the instance admin was offline at the time, and couldn’t restrict their registrations or ban the multiple spam bot accounts
