I’ve seen that some instances have already done it preemptively.
How is defederating going to help here? I’m genuinely asking. Doesn’t that just stop their content from showing on our feeds? It shouldn’t affect the amount of user data they can collect which isn’t much anyways because we’re not using their proprietary software.
My understanding is that people on exploding heads for example can still read these comments too. They just can’t reply. Or they can but we don’t see their replies. Only the people that federate with them do.
Am I getting something wrong here?
