I think it would be good to defed as few instances as possible.
Leave the decision to the user.
(I didn’t notice the defed)
The user does not have that decision. Instance blocking does not stop users from that instance from interacting with you.
Then I’m oblivious how lemmy federation works.
Gotta read up on it
Mostly that blocking and defederation aren't the same thing. Blocking only stops the comms on that instance from showing up in your feed. It's entirely unrelated to the federation / activitypub mechanic. It's effectively like you turning on a local filter in your client, and only filters communities.
