That's correct, but it still irks me.
Controlling what your users see via defederation or blocking a community is public, but users aren't going to notice the occasional post disappearing.
It's manipulative in a non obvious way, and prone to being abused.
That's a very good point. What may be a neutral (or biased for that matter) community 'at home,' can be invisibly skewed on another instance by their administrators. That's actually a bit concerning.
