Code for people interested https://codeberg.org/rimu/pyfedi/src/branch/main/app/admin/routes.py#L373

I commented it out, rebuild the Docker containers and it works now 👍

EDIT: People seem to misunderstand what it does. It prevents it from federating automatically when populating the community search, importing from another instance or from Lemmyverse. It’s not a full block, and you can still add it manually. Not only that, but it’s also already partially removed since I posted this.

        You go to https://INSTANCE_DOMAIN/c/COMMUNITY_NAME@COMMUNITY_DOMAIN and press Join

        You just try to go to the community from that instance, and it’ll say “community not found” and you just click it. Then someone local needs to subscribe to it for new content from there to federate.
