And that is why the way federation works right now needs a rethink. Users should be able to access content not cached by their home servers, so that the servers can defederate and don’t get into hot water for content from federated instances.
You seriously don’t understand what would lead some otherwise ordinary people who happened to start a lemmy instance that happened to become the biggest one from blocking a community the mere existence of which on their servers could lead to them getting sued into bankruptcy by some multinational corporation?

Scared of legal actions against them.
I could respect it if they owned that and said “we are covering the admin team’s butts.” Instead, they say this is to protect users. Laughable.
