This is why I believe federation should be an opt-in process rather than servers being federated by default.
Some of you may remember when Lemmy World was flooded with CSAM by other hostile instances and had to temporarily disable image uploads.
That would destroy the already limited content of the fedi. It's like people hate content discovery for some reason.
It's almost like federation is a stupid fucking idea that doesn't work
It's almost like it's fundamentally broken and no one else wants to admit it
What do you think towns and cities are
Stupid fucking ideas.
