Please. Captcha by default. Email domain filters. Auto-block federation from servers that don’t respect. By default. Urgent.

    As a user this will result in some growing pains since Lemmy currently doesn’t offer a way to migrate your account.

    Because you shouldn’t. Just like with other federated systems like e-mail or OAuth/OpenID, you don’t create accounts everywhere, you use ONE account everywhere instead.

    Personally I don’t see defederating as a bad thing.

    You should. Imagine e-mail server admins would start banning other e-mail services based on political or religious views and whatnot, that would fragment e-mail system and eventually destroy it. The only reason to defed other instance if such instance breaks the law. Just like we blacklist fraudulent mail server. Not because we don’t like fraud, but because it’s illegal.
