Great to see all this growth and activity in different lemmy instances!
Ohhh, that's good to hear. I didn't know about that last part. Hopefully this will get resolved so they can be more open while still doing their own thing.
The weird stuff that happens after defederation seems to me to be one of those wonky things that might keep users away from this kind of platform. Especially with a lot of the intro guides to the fediverse saying things like "it doesn't matter which instance you choose, you can go still go to any community."
Maybe as the instances deals with growing pains and communities get better moderation, defederation can become more of a last resort so these places can feel more connected.
