Does Lemmy currently gives too much trust to other instances? (lemmy.fbmac.net)

I noticed that my server import the bans from other instances. I think it's a great feature at the moment where there is no complains of anyone creating servers to abuse it, but I feel like it's bound to happen if there is no safety for it.

If we want to keep it easy for creating servers, maybe they should have a trust level, that could be set either manually or with some heuristics. I like the idea of some heuristics with the option for the admins to take some manual action.

(dunno if it's the right place to discuss that, is there some more appropriate community to ask things about lemmy itself, since this one is specific to lemmy.world?)

You're right, I tested with an alt account and the ban from my instance didn't affect it at lemmy.world. Thanks :-)
