I have a noob question. From a technical point of view, why does it matter to server A (beehaw) whether server B (world) federates with C (exploding nazis) or not? Since A is defederated from C, the content should be unavailable anyway. I completely get why a proper moderation of B itself is crucial, but what B federates with should be irrelevant if B itself stays "pure", right? Again, from a technical point of view, because otherwise willingly federating with nazis obviously strongly correlates with allowing nazis inside. To reiterate, how is A directly affected by what B federates with? Is it merely a matter of lobbying or is there some technicality I'm missing here?

MODERATORS
I'm glad they banned them. At some point, with better mod tools (and a bigger mod team on .world and beehaw) that the two servers can refederate.
Off Topic. I wish we had a link to the beehaw version of this thread so i could comment on it.
We're defederated from lemmy.world lol
Ohhhh yeah... Lol
After this and hopefully more positive decisions, and Lemmy itself getting better mod tools in time, hopefully we'll refederate with them. But as other comments from this thread show, the other one might be a lost case.
