OpenSUSE maintainers: hold my beer!
Explodingheads is an edgy, red-pilled, manosphere-loving, alt-right instance. A real den of scum and villainy type place. Many of the larger instances have already de-federated with them.
I have to say, though, despite the fact that Lemm.ee hasn't yet followed suit, I haven't seen any posts from there in the local/all feeds.
This instance is still federated with explodingheads, so I wouldn't expect anything to come of this. I saw the community you're speaking about and it seems to be pretty small-time. You're best off just blocking it.

Pro-Russian, Ukrainian paramilitaries who attacked and took over military bases and police stations, yes. What's your point?
I know that; I never said it did.
The Kremlin still took it upon itself to invade and illegally seize Ukrainian land, though.
In Donbas, it was Russia-backed separatists rather than Russian troops, although it was all part of the wider incursion into Ukraine by Russia at that time.
The conflict did not begin in 2022 by Russia. The only way the West has managed to gain and hold support has been by deceptively misrepresenting the reality of the situation in order to rally everyone around a perceived Evil. They don't bother describing what the people in the actual territories that asked for Russian support want. They don't bother describing how Ukraine has bombed its own people. They don't bother to describe how, partially due to Ukraine's abuses, several regions voted to join Russia. They don't bother to describe how Russia was invited by those fighting for their homes and families against Ukraine.
It's laughable that you totally omit the fact that Russia illegally annexed the Crimea back in 2014 and started this whole mess. Ukraine didn't just decide to start bombing its own people willy-nilly - it's because they were fighting off a foreign invader.
Regardless of the fact that some people in that region are Russian-speakers and sympathetic to Russia, that doesn't give Russia the right to waltz into a sovereign nation and take control of a large region of it.
I've played around with NixOS, Silverblue, and MicroOS (has recently been renamed Aeon) in VMs and really dig the concept. My general thoughts are:
NixOS - a genius idea but quite a steep learning curve as you have to throw out a lot of what you know about traditional Linux OSs and learn to do things the Nix way. Is too much for me to use as a daily driver, personally, but for people who need to spin up reproduceable systems super quickly, it would be amazing.
Silverblue - much more user friendly than Nix, but (like Fedora) the out of the box experience is a little awkward, especially if using vanilla Gnome with no extensions or modifications doesn't appeal to you. If not, then you're going to have to layer on things like Gnome Tweaks and Extension Manager and that can be a little confusing if all you're used to doing is running dnf install package in a terminal.
MicroOS / Aeon - This is, IMO, the best of the three for beginners because it comes with a lot of quality-of-life additions out of the box: distrobox, Gnome Tweaks, and Extension Manager are already built-in so you don't have to figure anything out (well, apart from how to use distrobox of you aren't already familiar). The only thing I think that Silverblue does better than Aeon is updates, which are a little opaque in the latter. Also, because Aeon is based on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed it is, in theory, less of a stable base than Fedora. (edit: oh, and documentation too! Silverblue is much better in that regard.)
I haven't tried Vanilla OS yet, but it looks pretty interesting. I'm waiting for the 2.0 Orchid release where they'll be moving to Debian Sid before I take it for a test run.
I'm sorry, but you are either blind or crazy.
