That said, it’s a very poor introduction to a new environment to be unknowingly thrown into a conflict on the side with little leverage and no understanding why the experience is so inconsistent with likely expectations, which is that one would be able to interact with the posts and comments they see.

It will be hilarious if the LW mods start to believe that they have any “leverage” because they have 12k MAU and that they can start to arbitrarily federate or block instances. Hilarious, I say…

It seems like you’re taking this statement very personally. It was meant to describe the circumstances from a detached perspective (mine). The value of an account on alien.top is much more heavily influenced by lemmy.world than the other way around currently.
You really should try to talk to them, it would help both instances and the experience of users on lemmy instances in general if you could bridge the rift that currently exists.
