Ah, federation sure, but that's a case where we shouldn't expose it outside of trusted instances, and certainly not in the api.
Can you elaborate for trusted instances? I can't find anything about those and I thought anyone could stand up their own Lemmy and connect to the fediverse. I didn't realize that you had to be approved to follow a community.
There is open, allow list, and block list federation.
