Federation of a forge has all the downsides of Lemmy federation multiplied - the implication is that I could issue a remote PR or a remote Issue (whatever) against a project with ill intent (trolls, spammers, whatever) instead of having a local account on that forge. sounds cool but...

...now besides only your own forge instance users, you now have to deal with "the whole world" being able to shit on your Git projects if they want to do so, until their bad-actor federated forge instance gets blocked. This is all beside the technical problems of how to integrate remote users into your workflows.

Forge federation has (to me) a large "social spam" problem of negatives to solve first. $0.02

Hmm... mailinglists should have the same problem, shouldn't they? Or are they maybe just so unpopular that they don't?
