@gougoudoggo :blobcatgoogly: when i translate your source myself, it casts a bit of a different light than what you write... So said, if the mods/admins of this instance decides to do that to prevent discomfort and distress, based on their own research, then it might be a well thought step to do that.

I would even go so far and say, based on their statement, its their own users who need to give feedback if this is what they really want. In this context I would be cautious about spreading such news in the way you do, without observing the situation further for a moment and wait for some feedback.
