A server can decide what servers it's connected to. It can have a blacklist of blocked instances - or even go further and have a whitelist of allowed instances, blocking all else.
Such a feature is necessary to deal with issues like spam instances, or instances that host illegal content.
One of the things I like a lot about lemme.ee is that they have blocked very few instances.
I've moved to https://piefed.social/ - I really like the ability there to subscibe to whole topics rather than individual communities. But I'll miss lemm.ee's defederation policy.
I guess it's time to migrate to piefed. I really love some of the things they're doing - but I'll miss lemm.ee, I feel most other instances either defederate way too much, or way too little (as in, not at all)...
Seems effective, at about 1.25 fake internet points per minute so far...
