The only thing that might be brigading, but isn't because it isn't a real thing, is someone explicitly going, "Hey everyone, go here and harass this person"

It's all fine and good that we have some new rules to keep the peace with other instances but we must fight against reddit-logo brainworms

    Can I ask what it means for us to have us defeded and block vs allow them?

    I thought if either party blocked the other it was the same as both blocking one another?

        Just to make sure I understand, if they blocked and we left the allow list as is, that would also be the case, right?

        Is it just so the other instance can't unilaterally turn federation on and off?
