Comment on Should instances defederate with other instances anymore if we can filter instances out on our end?

Oh you mean like that thing email servers do when they block other email servers. Yeah imagine that. That’d be wild! 😂

Yeah, I know that and how the same people who support defederation love to complain about Gmail and Outlook blocking their home server.
