We really need this.

Also for beehaw after the de-federation so they don't pollute the feed with posts with 90% of comments missing.

100% agree.

All of the political extremist and hate speech instances should be defederated. And Beehaw just because them defederating us creates a really bad user experience if we don't defederate them as you could respond to comments/posts by beehaw users on other instances and not realise they won't even see your replies.

But we would see our replies and could continue to discuss. Sure it would be a loss, but not complete so.
