You may remember the post about defederating with kbin.social, well, we're federating again.

Sadly, the spam situation did not improve, but I didn't want to deny our users the possibility of interacting with their users solely because their platform has technical issues.

This means a little more work for me, but I'll be following what other instance admins are doing and just removing their most popular communities (which are the target of the spam), meaning you still won't be able to interact with those, but at least you'll be able to interact with the users in other communities.
