It would be less of a problem if we as users on an instance could block entire instances, effectively defederating it just for our user. Then those running instances could defederate only in severe cases.
Would it though? I understand that the main reason for defederating is to avoid your instance downloading CSAM posted in another instance, which could get an instance maintainer in legal problems. Allowing users to block entire instances won't help, because the illegal media will still get downloaded by the instance.
I’m not saying defederating should go away, but that this should be an additional way to deal with unwanted content.
