We'll see, or not ?

They are not going to federate ads onto other instance and who cares if they show ads to their users on their instance? Sometime the fediverse really makes strange proposals...

They might try to push out actual posts that would show up on other instances.

Not sure what "defederate" means though. Can't all the major instances just like... stop following tumblr?

@cult @poVoq Most instances federate with everyone by default. Mastodon (as well as Friendica, Pleroma, and probably most other platforms) have options to either treat all users on another instance as suspended, and/or block all communications with an instance, and IIRC this is what people call defederation. It's functionally equivalent to "not following Tumblr."
