unfortunately there are a ton of fascists and fascist instances on fedi
Most get fedederated. Once I got raided by Nazis on Mastodon who sent me a lot of dead threats and poorly made anti trans. I messaged my friend who manages the backend of our instance and we defederated like 20 instances that day.
Is defederation the ban of a server from interacting with yours?
If your instance defederates from another one both dont get updates of the other instance anymore which means that you cant interact with any community or user on that instance. I dont know if the content from before the defederation also gets made unavailable or if it is still up.
