I have just logged in on my own Lemmy instance, and I see a list of banned users in the administrative area, from other instances. I have not banned anyone myself.

How does it work? If you’re banned from an instance, you’re banned from the whole federation?

Everything is running fine. It is as @jon@[email protected] and @[email protected] write.

If I am server A, and I federate with B. If user@B is banned by B, this is propagated to me, so that A does not see content from B that comes from user@B. It makes sense.
