Auto-block federation from servers that don’t respect.

What does this mean?

It's not really a fiasco at all. OP seems to be blowing it way out of proportion. For the vast majority of users it's not a big deal at all. They are disallowing port forwarding due to how many letters/threats they've gotten from their datacenters and law enforcement.

I2P is a darknet similar to Tor in some ways, but it is perfectly legal and safe to use depending on what you’re doing on it, of course.''

TOR is completely legal and safe to use depending on what you are doing as well. Let's not demonize the service due to a few bad actors.

Man, I just had a glance at Nostr as this is the first I've heard of it, and literally every single post/video/image was about bitcoin. For me, that's a huge turn off personally. I have absolutely zero interest in any bitcoin related stuff, and it's made sure I'll be avoiding Nostr in the future.

Communities stuck in “Subscription pending” on my self hosted instance. Have I missed something? (lemmy.ml)
 

I have my own instance of lemmy running, mostly to pull things from multiple other lemmy instancs. I find it a lot easier to have one account than multiple.

The problem is a lot of the communities I've added are stuck "subscription pending" which as led to only one or two communities actually showing up/updating on my instance.

Have I screwed something up? I've tried unsubscribing and resubscribing but it doesn't seem to have helped. I've had a look and my instance is federated with the instances (for example on lemmy.ml like this one). However posts (like this one) or comments do not seem to be showing up when I post them from my instance, and I'm not getting any new items from those instances in over 2 days.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Or they completely ignore and it and nothing happens until someone actually sues them and it goes through the courts, which could take years.
