the next area is obvious: limit vs defederation
in general, we just defederate instances that become sources of annoyance to us.
in some cases we will limit an instance, such as mastodon.social, in response to those instances being a source of spam, but this is pretty rare, because almost all of the instances we do instance-level blocking against are run by trolls who think flooding people with nazi shit is somehow new and novel.
of course, when you've been moderating IRC servers for 20 years, none of this shit is new or novel. it's just boring. and so we defederate it.
