My understanding of federation is that it's like email. If one server is misbehaving, then they get defederated.
So how come email spam still exists - why don't spammer domains get defederated? It seems like we've got the worst of both worlds, where it's hard to get your emails relayed when you run a small email server, and easy to get them relayed if you're a spammer.
Is there anything about Lemmy's architecture that will prevent this problem?
What a good post
I write to you in great distress, for I am Prince Oluwafemi of the Most Federated Kingdom of Lemmy. My federation has been defederated most unjustly, and I am in dire need of your assistance to restore my rightful place among the shitposters.
To do this I just need you to visit the charity setup by my people so they can track your donation and return the internet points once I am back in my rightful place www.justputyourcarddetailsin.edu
