    Hello admin. I am new to fediverse.

    I have questions. Does federation with other servers only work after the server admin has configured it?

    As It confused me coz I can access lemmy.ml (coz. you’ve configured it) but not other servers. May be coz you yet to configure them with home server. Have I got this right?

      If using open federation, you don’t need to configure anything. If using allowlist or blocklist, your server admin needs to add those instances explicitly.
