They aren't defederating everyone. They are selectively defederating the instances they don't like. Or selectively federating the instances they do like. Which is exactly how the fediverse is meant to work.
If you like the instances they don't like, or vice versa, then you should make your account on an instance other than theirs. Which is also how the fediverse is meant to work.
They already defederate more than 400 instances https://beehaw.org/instances
Maybe they immediately defederate an instance if they don't like some users
I don't mind that they defederated a random Mastodon instance called "rapefeminists". Almost all of these are from some list of bad Mastodon servers. Lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works are the only controversial ones (and temporary)
