You mean like if there's a community called
[!cats@example.com](/c/cats@example.com)and your home instance no longer federates with the instanceexample.com?If so, I'll add that to Tesseract as it sounds useful.
this would be an amazing addition! It would help avoid the disconnect between de-federated instances/communities
Added :) I also disabled the "Create Post" button if the community is on a defederated instance even though, technically, you can still post to your instance's local copy (it just won't federate).
Edit: This only works one way. i.e. it can only know if your instance is defederated from the community's. If the community's instance is defederated from yours, there will be no indicator because there's no way to do it without a remote lookup which is both unreliable and inefficient at scale.
That's amazing to see, Regardless if it's only one direction, that should still help wonders, thank you!
Are you the creator of Tesseract? I love it except it doesn't save my settings or my favorites and multi-communities. I'm not sure why and I've checked in the last 2 weeks. It's been doing it a long time.
