They can’t ban the other instances users from posting on non blahaj.zone communities they are connected to, nor can they can the ban individual communities on other instances.
The only tool an instance has right now to “ban” a user from another instance is to defederate the whole instance. Since that instances admins appeared to be indifferent to concerns at the core of blahaj existing, they took the one action they have available to resolve it.
It looks extreme, but not when you realize its literally the one option available.
That sucks. I think it’s mainly Lemmy moderation tools at fault here. It should be a feature to defederate/hide a specific user from an instance imo.
I can understand Ada, she wants her community to be the way it is, and that’s fine. And for the Feddit.UK admins for wanting to have Blahaj content on here. It just sucks for all here.

Blahaj refederated:
I think admins not having absolute power over their little echo fiefdoms is a good feature of the fediverse
It’s not like they couldn’t implement it though
