From my understanding of federated instances, wouldn't that mean your instance disconnected from whatever instance where those communities were hosted? Additionally, my instance either hosts those communities or is still connected with them, yes? I'm trying to explain Lemmy to friends. So, I'm making sure my understanding is accurate.
Yeah, that's right. You're on .world, right? Which I believe is federated with just about everything. There are all kinds of instances out there, and some are more selective of which instances they're federated with to filter out communities like that.
That's correct. I'm fine filtering them out manually, I was just very surprised at how much content I was seeing.
