I think the issue is in the beginning everyone wanted to federate with world.
So a new instance would get created, and before a so gle post was made, they’d federate with world.
So now a shit ton of zombie instances are federated. Like, the same trolls will make 5-10 accounts a day on a zombie server to post on world. Even if world reaches out to the zombie admin and gets a response, there’s a bunch more for the troll to use.
World admins need to prune their federations. If an instance only has 100 users and most aren’t active, it only helps trolls.
Why even come to Lemmy if you’re going to put all your eggs in one basket. Have we learned nothing?
Federation occurs automatically when a user subscribes or posts to a community.
