Didn’t you say you were blocking this instance?

Having rules about what the sidebar should say and how it should look like sounds like what a centralized system like Reddit would enforce, so I’m not sure I’m getting your point.

Anyway, I’m not a mod, I don’t care about Lemmy microdrama, this is just the place people went to when the sub was put into lockdown. So far the results of federation are neutral-to-negative in my opinion.
