Since we both know how federation works, and asking for a boost from an LW's community user ("posting to a Lemmy.world community") involves an active use of LW (does it?)... broadcasting up/down votes or boosts to LW, does also constitute "active use of lemmy.world", or doesn't constitute "access to and active use of lemmy.world"?
Can a federated user get banned for up/down voting or boosting the wrong content on LW? Can it be for interacting with wrong content hosted on a federated instance that actively forwards the interaction to LW because some other LW user happens to be subscribed to the federated community?
BTW, many legislations require an explicit acceptance of the Terms of Use as a "legal document", making that part either meaningless or illegal. How is it in the case of LW's "Kingdom of the Netherlands, and the Republic of Finland Suomen"?
