Code for people interested app/admin/routes.py#L373 (removed since posting), app/cli.py#L1026

I commented it out, rebuild the Docker containers and it works now 👍

EDIT: People seem to misunderstand what it does. It prevents it from federating automatically when populating the community search, importing from another instance or from Lemmyverse. It’s not a full block, and you can still add it manually. Not only that, but it’s also already partially removed since I posted this.

      Eventually, but only reluctantly and after first telling the userbase to simply piss off and stop asking.

      In contrast, the PieFed devs seem to have edited their codebase within mere minutes of this discussion having started to have already started changing things in highly positive directions, even prior to being officially asked on codeberg.

      The contrast there is eye-opening, and I hope indicative of what the future holds for the Threadiverse. There are far too many LONG-STANDING issues remaining in Lemmy that only continue to get ignored as the years drag on… Lemmy is their codebase, you exist at their leisure, whereas PieFed is ours, able to be modified in ways that we collectively want it to. Obviously I mean on the spectrum, aka “PieFed has highly responsive devs”, who not only receive but even outright ask for advice on things like prioritization (see e.g. last year’s [email protected], although nowadays they are doing that via codeberg issue tickets).
