Feddit.org instance is hosted in Austria but enforces German policies/law stating its illegal to question the statehood of Israel. Critism of the Gaza war/genocide, governmental issues etc are allowed I think. You just can't say Israel should/must not exist (when you agree with that, you are a "Zionist") or all Jews should be removed/killed/dead (antisemitism), things like that. Both are illegal under German law. Most of your instance and some other instances and users are against feddit.org for this reason.

My take is because almost all of their (feddit.org users, as OP is registered on) users are German (and atleast German speaking) citizens it makes moderating and request from authorities not a pain in the ass. How do you differate from a German speaking user/ post in german if they could be from Austria, Switzerland, Luxembourg, living somewhere else? So they went with complying with German law (that's how I understand this drama)

Think what you think of it but that's it in a nutshell.
