    How can revolt “remove” a server since you can connect to any custom hosted server? It’s like saying lemmy removed an instance.

    And besides, I’m pretty sure that is something that federated instances will have to worry about too, you might not care about your local laws but the ISP or hosting provider of your server where possibly illegal data is, will care.

      No it isn’t. The default is to be hosted on Revolt servers. I created a “server” and I didn’t set up any kind of server, so it’s not running on my server. I don’t really know all the technical details, I just signed in and saw a message that said the “server” was removed.

        Ah I see, so kinda like having a community on kbin.social removed. I mean that makes sense then, the admin and owner of the server can decide if he doesn’t want something there, its his server (or in this case, revolts)
